The veteran Ebuka Izundu and Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen are leading Galatasaray's sports teams to glory.

Nigerian basketball star Ebuka Izundu has joined forces with Super Eagles sensation Victor Osimhen to lead Galatasaray's sports teams to remarkable success. 

Izundu's recent performance for the Lions has drawn comparisons to Osimhen, particularly after a standout display in the Basketball Champions League.

In a thrilling match against St. Quentin Basket-Ball, the Galatasaray Basketball team defeated their visitors with an impressive score of 84-63. 

The team dominated the game, trailing for only 26 seconds, thanks in large part to Izundu's contributions.
