And, to make matters worse for the Rwandan champions, Adonis Filer was also stretchered off by the emergency services to receive medical treatment. The duo, who have so far been Mazen Trakh\u2019s key men in his team, never returned to the game.<\/p>\n<p>APR had their toughest game in Dakar and dropped to 2-3-win ratio ahead of the last day of the Sahara Conference on Sunday where they will face home side AS Douanes while qualified Rivers Hoopers will go up against US Monastir.<\/p>\n<p>Rwanda&#8217;s Clare Akamanzi, CEO NBA Africa,
