Ime Udoka helps Spurs to WCF

Ime Udoka helped lead the San Antonio Spurs past the New Orleans Hornets on Monday night.
The Spurs used their experience to pull out the win in New Orleans and were aided by Udoka who led the Spurs bench with eight points including two important three-pointers. Ime averaged 11.3 ppg in the last four games of the series and that helped the Spurs bench compete with the little the Hornets got from their bench. Next up for the Spurs and Ime, the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals. We here at Africa Sports wish Ime the best and hope for one heckuva series.

The King adds more Silverware

King Kanu brought some silverware to the Southern coast of England on Sunday.
Nwankwo Kanu scored the lone goal in the 2008 FA Cup Final to give Portsmouth a 1nil win over Cardiff City. Kanu already has amassed a colletion of medals and trophies and decided to bestow one on Harry Redknapp aka "appy arry", the Pompey manager who for all his wheelin and dealin had not won a trophy in his managerial career.(Intertoto cup doesn't count).
The King will attempt to add two more years to his EPL playing career if he and his agent can convince Pompey to extend his contract, if not, perhaps an MLS team might offer him a designated player contract.
Regardless, we duff our hats to Papillo aka King Kanu aka Nwankwo Kanu.
