Melbourne United showcased their dominance once again by defeating Perth Wildcats 98-87, extending their win streak to four matches. The game, marked by momentum swings, saw United maintain composure in critical moments, displaying their ability to perform under pressure. Key players, Milton Doyle and Tyson Walker, played pivotal roles, with significant contributions from Jesse Edwards on rebounds. Despite the Wildcats' efforts, led by Kristian Doolittle's double-double, they fell short in the clutch moments. The Wildcats have shown they can compete but lacked the finishing edge.

Perth Wildcats vs Melbourne United Preview


Melbourne beat Perth prior to the FIBA international break with a comfortable 11-point victory. United are the best team in the competition and can land another clear but win with Milton Doyle to have another 15+ point match. 

  • Melbourne have won 7 of their last 8 games against Perth.
  • Melbourne have scored an average of 98.5 points in their last 4 matches.
  • Tyson Walker has 5+ assists in 4 of his last 6 matches.
  • Milton Doyle has 15+ points in 5 of his last 6 matches.

Wildcats Run Ended By United


Perth’s three-game winning streak was broken by Melbourne United before the FIBA break, going down to the league leaders 98-87. 

In what was a a match of momentum swings, with the Wildcats in it until the end, but were simply unable to come up big in the dying stages of the match.

Kristian Doolittle had his fourth double-double of the season with a team high 20 points and 11 rebounds but it simply wasn’t enough. Dylan Windler also had one of his better performances of the season shooting at 63.6 FG%, while Jo Lual-Acuil also had 19 points. 

It is obvious this season that the Wildcats can mix it with the best, however this was another moment where they needed a clutch performance down the stretch that didnt come. 

Melbourne Marching With 4-Match Win Streak


Melbourne are rolling again and are on another 4-match win streak after getting a tough victory against Perth at home before the FIBA Break. 

Despite the score blowing out to 98-87, the match was in the balance very late and United were calm and collected, as they have been in these situations all season, coming up big when the pressure is on. 

Tyson Walker is looking like one of the buys of the season and has fitted into the Melbourne system seamlessly, along with former JackJumper Milton Doyle with the import pair accounting for 47 points against the Wildcats, while third import Jesse Edwards had his NBL-best 16 rebounds. 

United’s league-best scoring of 97.3 points is hard for any opposition to keep pace with Melbourne also topping the charts in both offensive rating 120.5 and defensive rating of 106.3.

Verdict

Milton Doyle can score 15+ points and Tyson Walker tally 5+ assists as Melbourne United score over their team total of 93.5 points and cover as 2.5-point away favourites.
