Highs & Lows For Perth Wildcats

The Wildcats fans endured some mighty highs and lows last weekend. A 96-84 win over Melbourne United in their back to back series last Thursday had the team pumped to take on the returning Bryce Cotton and Adelaide 36ers at RAC.

Perth dominated the proceedings leading 78-60 at 3 qtr time before an amazing collapse allowed their opponents and Perth golden child Bryce Cotton to steal the game 95-94. Kristian Doolittle scored 17 pts and had 11 rebounds together with 6 assists in one of his better games of the season while 3 other starters all scored in double digits.

They even kept Bryce to just 21 pts on the other end but were dominated under the rim by Isaac Humphries who connected on 13 of 15 shots from 2pt range. They are still the number 3 ranked scoring defence and have allowed just 1 game of 100+ points from their opponent.

Two Game Slide For Sydney Kings

Sydney are on a 2 game slide after back to back losses on the road in rounds 10 and 11. First to the JackJumpers 104-81 in Tassie then 95-90 to the Breakers in Hamilton.

The losses broke a 4 game win streak and was only the second time this season the team has suffered 2 losses in a row. Kendric Davis is leading the scoring for the Kings with 22.1 pts per game but managed just 18 against the Breakers. His 11 assists though, the highest number of the season for the star import.

The Kings were unable to stop the barrage from distance as they allowed their opponent to shoot 44.1% from beyond the arc, something that has plagued them all season long. They rank 7th in the league in opponent 3pt% as well as being 7th in their own 3pt%.

Verdict

Perth Wildcats v Sydney Kings

Take the total under as well as Sydney’s team total Under. Kristian Doolittle to get 10+ boards is a top player prop.
