Nigeria's D’Tigress guard Ezinne Kalu is preparing for the final warm-up game against China ahead of the 2026 FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup. The three-game series ended with Nigeria suffering narrow defeats to the hosts in their second game on Sunday, followed by a 70-67 loss in the opening encounter last Friday. Kalu believes the final test against China will provide the team with an opportunity to correct their mistakes and improve their performance ahead of the World Cup.
The team will continue their build-up with matches in Tenerife, Spain, and Zaragoza, Spain, before heading to Berlin, Germany, for the World Cup from September 4 to 13.
