Australia vs Guam Preview

Australia vs Guam Verdict

Perth should play host to a huge Australia win when the Boomers take on Guam in a FIBA Basketball World Cup 2027 Asian Qualifier. It was a 13-point away win earlier in qualifying but expect a much bigger victory at RAC Arena.

Head-to-Head

Australia comfortably won the previous meeting between the two nations earlier in the qualification campaign. The Boomers controlled much of the contest in Guam and recorded a 13-point victory.

Team News

The headline act is undoubtedly Bryce Cotton as the six-time NBL MVP finally makes his Boomers debut after being granted citizenship.

Cotton headlines an exciting mix of experienced Boomers and emerging stars.

Future NBA prospect Alex Condon is set to make his senior international debut after helping Florida win the NCAA Championship, while NBA guard Tyrese Proctor also joins the squad following his move to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Veterans Mitch Creek, Jack McVeigh and Josh Bannan provide leadership, while Perth locals Ben Henshall and Elijah Pepper should receive a warm reception from the RAC Arena crowd.

Australia vs Guam Form

Australia's Boomers enters the contest unbeaten through four qualification games and sit sixth in World Rankings.

Guam are still searching for its first victory of the campaign and are ranked 77th in the world.

In qualifying, Australia averages 87.3 points per game, compared to Guam's 66 and the Boomers also hold sizeable advantages in rebounds (44.5 to 33.8), assists (20.3 to 11.0) and points in the paint (36 to 26).

Shooting efficiency also favours the Boomers. Australia is converting 51% of its two-point attempts compared to Guam's 41.9%, while shooting 42% overall from the field.
