Earlier in the week, SA beat Uganda 50-47, thrashed Zimbabwe, 69-39 and defeated Malawi 56-51.
The Proteas still have a 100% record heading into the final match of the tournament today against Zambia (16:00 on Supersport 10). They will look to finish the tournament unbeaten and take the title as African champions.
