Organisers never imagined anything like what YMCA Court saw on Thursday night.
The biggest ever crowd in Ugandan basketball came to watch American Street Ball group, And 1, do their thing.

Save for the lesson Sprite will take from managing the entrances, it was worth more than the Shs5, 000 fee even if the majority tore down the usual tarpaulins forcing organisers to allow all to watch for free.
Those who couldn’t find room to stand, caught the And 1, on an East African Tour, sweep Uganda’s All-Stars 134-75 on a projector in an exhibition. Going by stage names, the Street Ball superstars - Hot Sauce Spyda, Werm, Fifty, Amazing, Highrizer, Baby Shaq and Airbama – took the inexistent roof off.
At the end, fans flooded the court to take pictures with their new heroes and also secure autographs. It was a sea of people. Ugandan slam-dunk champion Joseph Ikong had kept his name intact. Kenyan Richard Osano Omondi, who played against Hot Sauce the day before at Green Hill Academy in a dunking contest, was the epitome for the locals.

Household names
Household names Stephen Omony, Ronnie Kasewu, Ivan Enabu, Norman Blick and Ben Komakech faced the challenge head on but were also as amazed as everyone else. The And 1 features in the ESPN Street Ball Series, Nike dribbling commercials, video games in addition to movies.

Meanwhile, Kyambogo Warriors, the only MTN-Fuba League Division One team with a perfect record, can make it four in four against Charging Rhino at YMCA today. Warriors, last year’s losing finalists, are coming off a 93-80 victory over champions Power in which Kasewu had 20 points and 16 rebounds
