The Friends of Nigerian Basketball Foundation is a nonprofit organization based out of Delaware. Their overarching mission is to connect the Nigerian diaspora around the world while developing the sport of basketball on a global scale at all levels of competition. With help from ambassadors like Odiakosa, they're going to get the Nigerian Men's Olympic Basketball Team to Tokyo. Odiakosa notes, "Once you don't give up or don't let the initial perception stop you from going forward, it keeps you moving forward."

Nigeria's men's national basketball team joined the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) in 1964. Between 1995 and 2017, they placed in the top three of the Africa Championships on eight different occasions, winning it entirely in 2015. They qualified for the Olympics in 2012, 2016, and 2020, though they haven't had the resources to compete on the global stage. Considering the team is currently ranked 1st in all of Africa and 22nd in the world, supporting their efforts was indeed a no-brainer.
