The Bahamas Men’s National Basketball Team, who currently is ranked 56th in the FIBA World Standings, played two games against the University of Kansas Jayhawks over the past three days as they prepare to embark on qualifying for the the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris next summer. They dropped the first game 92-87 on Saturday to Bill Self’s Kansas squad, but responded with a win today, 87-81.
Two members of the Phoenix Suns are on the Bahamian team, which creates a vested interest in their performance during the qualifying games that lie ahead or the Bahamas.
