Elie Kaje, the Captain of Rwanda Energy Group (REG) Basketball Club is confident that his team can hurt continental giants US Monastir when the two sides face off today at the ongoing Basketball Africa League (BAL) 2022 that is unfolding in Dakar, Senegal.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just need to be focused. We know US Monastir is an experienced team but we\u2019re confident that we can beat them. We need to be ready mentally and physically,\u201d Kaje said.<\/p>\n

Among the US Monastir players who will challenge REG is Ivorian point guard Souleymane Diabate, Lebanese center Ater James Majok and experienced Tunisian power forward Radhouane Slimane.<\/p>\n

After today’s match, REG will play its final match against Beira Mozambique’s Clube Ferrovi\u00e1rio da Beira on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
