Flamengo plays Bauru this Saturday at Tijuca Tênis Clube at 16 p.m., with live coverage on SporTV. Besides enjoying half-price tickets for R$15 while wearing the red-and-black jersey, fans have another reason to watch the game: the grand return of point guard Kojo. Having recovered from injury, he is currently the standout assist-maker in this round of the Novo Basquete Brasil (NBB), with 11 total.  

"I think this record of best assists is a result of the chemistry between our players on the court. We're very united, and there's always a highlight at the end of the rounds. This shows how focused the team is on the same goal," reveals the point guard.

To purchase your ticket, simply visit the Tijuca Tennis Club. Members can purchase tickets at the vice-president of Olympic sports at Clube de Regatas do Flamengo. Kojo believes Saturday's match will be a great opportunity for the public to witness a basketball spectacle.

"I think tomorrow's game will be a great spectacle for the fans who come to Tijuca to watch us. We'll have some of the biggest names in Brazilian basketball on the court. On our side, we'll have Marquinhos, Caio, Olivinha, Benite, and all the other members of Flamengo's basketball team, who are very close. On the opposing side, we'll have Larry, who is also part of the Brazilian national team. It'll be a lot of fun to watch and a very tough game for our team," analyzed Kojo.
