Dynamo forfeit BAL game against Rabat in wake of jersey protest - ESPN
PRETORIA, South Africa -- Burundi's Dynamo BC have forfeited their Basketball Africa League game against FUS Rabat, set to be played Sunday, in the wake of the Burundian side's refusal to display tournament sponsor Visit Rwanda's logo.
Dynamo had blacked out the logo on their jerseys with tape for their opening game against Cape Town Tigers the night before. Dynamo went on to win the game, and in the aftermath Dynamo players declined to delve into detail about the protest, although guard Dhieu Deing confirmed to ESPN that it was related to the political conflict.
