Captain Brendan Okoronkwo believes Worthing Thunder have the ideal chance to prove their worth as National League Division 1 title contenders this weekend.

Thunder make the trip to Hemel Storm on Saturday in a rematch of last season’s play-off final, looking to build on Sunday’s 89-78 victory over Solent Kestrels, which confirmed Worthing’s place in the National Trophy semi-finals.

Skipper Okoronkwo, part of the team that beat Hemel 67-57 to be crowned play-off winners last term, feels that with the National Trophy now out of the picture until next year, Worthing can make an early statement of intent against a strong Hemel outfit.
