A thrilling encounter is on the cards at Bulawayo Club for the Disabled Courts when log-leaders Highlanders and Southern Mavericks clash in a Southern Region Basketball League match today.

By Sukoluhle Mthethwa Sports Reporter

The games were put on hold last week owing to the Kings Invitational Tournament.

Highlanders are second on the log-table with 18 points from nine games while Mavericks are third with 16 points from the same number of games.

Highlanders remain the only unbeaten team in the men’s section this season while Mavericks have lost twice.

The match is likely to be exciting as Highlanders want to continue with their fine run.

Mavericks aim to revenge as Highlanders were the first team to hand the league debutants their first defeat of the season after an impressive start earlier in the season.

In the other match lined up for today in the men’s section Kings take on Giants.

Kings will be aiming for maximum points after losing 68-60 to Stars in their last league match while Giants would also want to win after suffering a 71-65 defeat at the hands of log-leaders Unicorns in the last league encounter.
