Afrobasket: DR Congo End South Sudan Unbeaten Run

DR Congo stunned Africa's No.1 team on Sunday on the last day of Window 2 of the AfroBasket 2025 Qualifiers.

The Congolese's 76-69 overtime ended South Sudan's unbeaten run on the continent. The Bright stars' last loss took place in August 2022 in Monastir, when they fell to Senegal 69-66.

Michell Perrin's men fought for their lives from the opening jump ball to the final buzzer to wrap Group A's first round undefeated with a 3-0 mark. #afrobasket #drcongo #southsudan #qualifiers #basketball
