Saskatchewan Rattlers set to host first playoff game in 3 years

After missing out the past two years, the Saskatchewan Rattlers are playoff bound.

They will host the back-to-back Canadian Elite Basketball Leauge champion Edmonton Stingers in the play-in game for a spot in the quarterfinals.

It has been a tough couple of seasons for the Rattlers who only amounted two wins since winning the championship in 2019.

But they’ve charged back to a 11-9 record this year under new head coach Dean Demompolous.

The winner will move on to the quarterfinals to face either the Niagra River Lions or Scarborough Shooting Stars.

Tipoff at Sasktel Centre tonight is 7 p.m.
