Team Info
Uganda is the senior men's national basketball team of Uganda, nicknamed the Silverbacks. They compete in the FIBA AfroBasket championship and regional qualifiers, with home games played at the MTN Arena in Kampala. The team was founded in the mid-20th century and wears yellow, red, and black. A key era in their history was qualifying for the AfroBasket tournament in 2015, a major breakthrough that announced their arrival on the continental stage. The modern team is known for its athleticism, speed, and tenacious defense, often featuring players from the domestic league and a growing diaspora in the United States. Recent campaigns have seen them become a tough opponent for Africa's traditional powers. The Silverbacks enjoy fervent support from a basketball-mad nation, creating a formidable home-court advantage. Uganda is a rising force in African basketball with ambitions to become a regular contender.
