NANTES (2016 FIBA Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament) - With the 2016 FIBA Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament (WOQT) set for tip-off on Monday, the 12 teams competing for the remaining five places for the Rio Olympics posed for the camera.

No one really knows how the Nigerians will do during the 12-team qualifier for the Rio Olympics. But judging by the shootout session, they indicate a great team spirit.
