    I have a good feeling that South Sudan will become like the Lithuania of Africa, a basketball obsessed nation thanks to their team's success in the Basketball World Cup and playing in the Olympics. It started off with South Sudanese diaspora pushing the team high and will result in their whole country loving basketball. A similar story happened in Lithuania and Greece where the sport became popular there as a result of the American diaspora lifting their national teams.

    The Sudanese team jumped 32 spots from 63rd to 31st in the FIBA World rankings. Rising stars indeed. Former NBA all-star Luol Deng has done a good job bringing back basketball to his home country that has being going through a lot of issues with their own civil war.
