Game 6 of the Tusker Lite National Basketball League final playoffs is on tonight at 7:30pm inside the MTN Indoor Arena, Lugogo.

The best of series final stand at 3-2 and Oilers only want to win this game to claim another historic seventh title. For UCU, they have to win all the remaining two games to be able to pull a memorable new decade comeback.
