Great Britain U18 beat Azerbaijan U18 67–55
Agbason carries the load for Azerbaijan, averaging 15.7 points per game with a 79.7 TIB efficiency rating — a commanding presence that our GB side will need to contain early. Nwokolo leads the British effort at 7.2 PPG, though his 26.8 efficiency suggests there's room for him to impose himself more forcefully on the boards and in transition. The matchup hinges on how much space Great Britain can afford Agbason in open court. Azerbaijan will look to run, and if our defence doesn't set quickly, his scoring burden — 1.3 assists per game notwithstanding — could become a one-man operation that stretches us thin. Nwokolo's task is simpler: stay active on both ends, limit turnovers, and trust the system rather than hunt for shots. This is Division B territory, which means every possession carries weight. Tip-off in three hours.
