In: NBL — Sunday, 11 Feb, 2024

BRYCE Cotton put on a show in Perth as the Wildcats ultimately comfortably eliminated Cairns from the post-season and Tasmania flexed its muscles in front of a 10,000-plus crowd at John Cain Arena, formally consigning South East Melbourne to the club's historic first last-placed finish in its NBL life.

PJC and WMW combine to flush Hawks: NBL

In: NBL — Saturday, 10 Feb, 2024

PARKER Jackson-Cartwright last night staked his case as the NBL's premier "Little Big Man", leading New Zealand to a huge home win over Illawarra, making tomorrow's Hawks' trip to Sydney massive and the Breakers' visit to Melbourne also critical. In Brisbane, the Bullets ended Adelaide's play-in bid.

Ezi at both ends haunts Brazilian dreams

In: Boomers & Opals — Friday, 9 Feb, 2024

MAGNIFICENT Ezi Magbegor today saved Australia from an ignominious defeat in its Paris Olympic Qualifying match against host nation Brazil in Belem, underpinning a 60-55 escape with several key late-game blocks to accompany game highs in points (18) and rebounds (7).

NBL Rankings, Tips 19: Time's up for pretenders

In: NBL — Thursday, 8 Feb, 2024

HOW massive is this penultimate round of the NBL regular season? The finals fates of Adelaide and Cairns, both on 15 losses, hang on away wins in Brisbane and Perth respectively. And this also could signal Sydney's official despatch from its historical second threepeat bid - and cut short coach Mahmoud Abdelfattah's two-year contract.

Brazilian close shave on cards for Opals

In: Boomers & Opals — Thursday, 8 Feb, 2024

OK, I admit it. I'm nervous about the Opals in Brazil facing the hosts, Germany and Serbia from tomorrow morning, an Olympic berth for the Paris Games at stake. Barring the unforeseen, the Australian women's team - 2022 FIBA World Cup Bronze Medallists - really only need win one game and should qualify.

In: NBL, WNBL, Boomers & Opals — Tuesday, 6 Feb, 2024

YES we're rolling again this week, Brad Rosen and I dissecting the NBL's latest developments in our Brad&Boti podcast but without any WNBL to speak of, we revisit the Opals playing for Olympics qualification in Brazil this coming weekend before going in-depth on our men's competition.

Will's bill? Ridiculous - NBL18 Wrap in Full

In: NBL — Monday, 5 Feb, 2024

IF you missed any of NBL Round 18's match summaries, here they are for you all in one place! How's that for convenience? And how's this for ridiculous? The NBL's Games Review Panel today gave Tasmania's Will Magnay a one-game suspension or a $1,550 fine for "unduly rough play" against Cairns.

NBL TotW18: Finals hat-trick locked away

In: NBL — Monday, 5 Feb, 2024

ILLAWARRA, Tasmania, Melbourne and New Zealand enjoyed unblemished Round 18 NBL performances to set themselves up as the four-runners (see what I did there?) for our highly-coveted, often fought over, always cherished accolade as our Team of the Week. 


Jackies jump 36ers, Breakers rolling: NBL

In: NBL — Sunday, 4 Feb, 2024

TASMANIA took a giant leap toward sealing third spot on the NBL ladder as Adelaide hit the wall in Hobart, and New Zealand's post-season picnic plans stayed alive with a Lamb-less win in Perth, the Breakers taking the edge off the post-game #53 uniform retirement party for Wildcats' legend Damian Martin.
