Legends, who average over 40 years sent shock waves in the Basketball fraternity after defeating Our Savior (average 23 years) in a game 3.

The Legends have been a very big inspiration to many people and their performances have been nothing short of spectacular.

During game 1, people did not count them in but they made a shocker as they played calmly and got the victory.

Our Savior tidied up in game 2 and leveled the series but Legends were in business mode come game 3.

Our Savior started strong, leading with as many as 10 in the first quarter. The water soon became turbulent as Legends made wave after wave of attacks.

Legends limited Our Savior to just 6 points in the second and third quarter and they took the lead for the first time after Nabulobi Franceas buried a 3 point shot with 1:08 left.

They then carried the momentum to the final quarter, starting with a 7:0 run and their lead bulging to 11.

Our Savior just couldn’t get back in the game. All the work did not yield results in the final minutes and Legends managed to get an 8 point victory and advance.

Legends will play UPDF who are still unbeaten this season and this will be one of the most anticipated games.

Can Legends shock UPDF?
