Like the rest of the team, Otto was immense throughout the entire tournament, where Uganda clinched a seventh finish, the best ever at the Afrobasket.

Uganda Gazelles star Jannon Otto clinched the Topscorer and Small Forward awards at the concluded FIBA Women's Afrobasket in Kigali, Rwanda.

Like the rest of the team, Otto was immense throughout the entire tournament, where Uganda clinched a seventh finish, the best ever at the Afrobasket.

She managed a whooping 128 points to be named topscorer at the continental showpiece, while her excellence and consistency earned her the Small Forward of the tournament award.

Ugandans immediately took to social media to pour their imperishable love for Otto, and the rest of the team.

Many have christened her 'Girl from Gulu' as she promised a visit to Gulu when next she makes it to the country.

The Gazelles had the entire country believing that success at the bigger stages is a huge possibility and not just a case of taking part.
