Taine Murray is also backed to make at least three and four three-pointers, having hit four and five in his last two matches. Brisbane have won three of their last five games and lead the NBL in rebounding, while Perth have lost three of their last four and continue to start games slowly. The focus is on the first quarter market and Murray's three-point shooting props.

Brisbane Bullets vs Perth Wildcats Verdict


The first quarter market is the focus with Brisbane Bullets backed to win the opening period at home. I'm also backing Taine Murray to make 3+ three-pointers and 4+ threes.

Key Stats


  • Perth have lost the first quarter in five consecutive games.
  • Brisbane have won three of their last five opening quarters.
  • Taine Murray has made four and five three-pointers in his last two games.
  • Perth have lost three of their last four games and are 0-1 on the road this season.

Head to Head


Perth dominate the all-time series with 70 wins from 114 meetings and have won five of the last six encounters.

The Wildcats won both meetings in February, including a 94-75 home victory, while Brisbane's most recent win came in December 2025.

Brisbane Bullets Form


Brisbane improved to 5-5 with a 96-89 victory over Adelaide on Sunday, producing one of their strongest performances of the season against the 36ers.

The Bullets shot an impressive 13-of-37 from three-point range, compared to Adelaide's 6-of-32. Tyrell Harrison led Brisbane with 24 points and 10 rebounds, while Nate Hinton contributed 18 points, seven rebounds and six assists.

Brisbane have now won three of their last five games, including victories over South East Melbourne and Illawarra. Their rebounding remains a major strength, leading the NBL with 47.2 boards per game.

Perth Wildcats Form


Perth's season has taken a disappointing turn, with the Wildcats dropping to 5-4 following consecutive home defeats against Sydney and Illawarra.

Saturday's 105-98 loss to the Hawks was particularly concerning, with Perth unable to contain an Illawarra side that entered the contest bottom of the ladder. The Hawks shot 13-of-30 from beyond the arc and dominated the offensive glass 16-11.

Dylan Windler led Perth with 19 points and nine rebounds, but another slow start left the Wildcats chasing the game after losing the opening quarter 24-19.

Perth have now lost three of their last four games and face a difficult trip to Brisbane before returning to RAC Arena on Sunday.

Verdict

Back Brisbane to win the first quarter against a slow-starting Perth side, with Taine Murray 3+ threes and 4+ threes also tipped following his increased offensive involvement.
