Coming off the bench, he tallied 14 points, three rebounds, and two assists while getting some crucial baskets down the stretch, providing a much-needed offensive threat off the bench as Vincent Mubiru and Jerry Kayanga combined for only nine points in both guard positions.

A player, the Canons, had to rely on in their victory against the Titans on Friday.
He took advantage of the absence of Saidi Amisi as he cleaned up the boards on both ends of the floor in their victory.
He scored 17 points and gathered 20 rebounds in 37 minutes on the night, resting for less than two minutes the whole game proving to be the team's iron man on the night.
Forward: Joseph Chuma- KIU Titans

Despite the defeat, the KIU Titans played a role in their classic against the Canons and, at one point, had a lead that had ballooned to as much as 20.
Chuma played a significant role in his side starting like a house on fire as he scored 10 points and 14 rebounds in 32 minutes of action and was joint second in the plus-minus category for his team, showing his influence in the game before it was lost at the death.
