Best Closer? Bryce Cotton, as 36ers win away again
.jpeg)
FOR many, the letters "BC" conjure a religious connotation. For those of us who embrace basketball as our religion, BC means only one of two things, and they are intertwined - Bryce Cotton and Best Closer. The little master did it again last night to end Tasmania's unbeaten home run.
Premium Norton Protection guides Bullets win
STARTING in his milestone 400th NBL game, Mitch Norton delivered an 11-point, 9-assist extravaganza which not only halted Brisbane's recent slide but sent South East Melbourne back to the drawing board, two of its imports continuing to underperform and coach Josh King with plenty on his mind.

YES at last, the WNBL tips off tonight in Hobart with the league's freshest face Tasmania Jewels hosting its second newest club Geelong Venom amid the rebirth of basketball for women in the island state. The JackJumpers have been great for the game. The Jewels will be the same.
Kings snarlin' as Carlin lays waste to Cup hope
NEW Zealand's Carlin Davison has always been a super athlete. Last night in Canberra, he went further and became Superman for the Breakers, in the injury-forced absence of Parker Jackson-Cartwright, taking on the role of point guard and driving the Ignite Cup experts to a sizzling NBL road win over Sydney.

ANTHONY Drmic has hung up his boots and as his first NBL coach, Joey Wright recalls him fondly at our Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast this week, the Tasmania JackJumpers' championship winner claiming Rookie of the Year honours way back when at Adelaide 36ers.
Wow. Now we glorify sore losing? NBL Wrap
KENDRIC Davis' return to his most pathetic and immature behaviour that saw out Adelaide's well planned and executed win over somebody's "benchmark" team yesterday, needs to be looked at deeper than "it's good for the game" because pedestalling a sore loser is not what Aussie sports is about, or ever has been.
Kenyon D leads to another Davis outburst
IF you're not a dyed-in-the-wool Sydney Kings fan or apologist, it becomes increasingly difficult to like Kendric Davis, a petulant flopping sook who likes to play the victim, even after Adelaide has strategically used Matt Kenyon to curtail his influence and underpin a 36ers road upset.
Phoenix cough up a Throwdown as Dylan winds up
SOUTH East Melbourne last night coughed up another Throwdown before Brandon Knight made a promising debut in Perth, Dylan Windler with 32 points and seven 3-pointers as the Wildcats finally ran away from a New Zealand team missing injured inspirational leader Parker Jackson-Cartwright.
SunOnCrocs4: Time to relive a glorious past
MORE than a decade has now passed since the Townsville Crocodiles were reduced to luggage by the NBL in 2016, a proud club embraced by its community and punching above its weight from its 1993 debut till its demise, showcasing players such as Rob Rose, Corey Williams and Larry Abney to name just a few.
