Teams Preview
Melbourne United Preview
Melbourne United are coming off an 81-92, 11-point win over the South East Melbourne Phoenix, which ended their two-game losing streak. Tyson Walker was the standout, scoring 24 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists. Finn Delany (18 points), Chris Goulding (16 points), and Milton Doyle (12 points) also scored in double digits.
Jesse Edwards played a pivotal role on the defensive end, grabbing 11 rebounds and blocking 2 shots. He has been averaging 8 rebounds per game this season and will be key in stopping Casey Prather of the Brisbane side and protecting the paint.
United hold a 10-2 record this season and stand at the top of the points table. They have won four of their last five home games this season, scoring an average of 95 points per game on the offensive end while allowing 81.2 points per game on the defensive end.
Brisbane Bullets Preview
The Brisbane Bullets have had a mixed run in recent matches, winning two and losing three of their last five games. Their most recent match against the New Zealand Breakers ended in an 84-113 loss, where the Bullets were completely outplayed on both ends of the floor.
Casey Prather scored 26 points and 8 rebounds against the Breakers, while D. Mathias (12 points), A. Ducas (11 points), and Harrison (11 points, 8 rebounds) all scored in double digits. However, the lack of scoring off the bench, defensive lapses, and the high number of turnovers committed ultimately cost the Bullets the game.
The Bullets currently hold a 5-8 record through 13 matches this season. They have won three and lost two of their last five away games, averaging 89.2 points per game while allowing 92 points per game this season. The Bullets' offense is expected to face a tough challenge against a strong United side.
