 Jordan made it two FIBA 2019 World Cup qualifying wins from two games in front of a packed Prince Hamzeh Arena tonight.

The players followed up their crushing opening win against Syria on Thursday with a superb 87-83 win over favourites Lebanon to top Group C.

The star of the night was playmaker Dar Tucker who scored a game high 32 points, showing why he was named the MVP in the Argentinian League this season.
