B.O.T.I. Players of the Week, 9
SOME weeks are definitely harder than others and Round 9 certainly is a case in point for B.O.T.I. Player of Week nominees.

EXPECT the Sydney Kings to have to make a call on whether to bring in a new backup guard very quickly because it now appears Steve Blake will not be returning.

HATS off to Perth Lynx, the WNBL club this week announcing the biggest free-to-air TV news of the season with two games to be live on Channel 7.

B.O.T.I. Players of the Week, 8

NBL Rd.8 Wrap: Can a favourite win?
THAT was the NBL round to end all NBL rounds. Rest assured, coaches and star players aren't looking for symnpathy or making excuses when they say this is the most even season on record, even if Sydney just lost Steve Blake.
WNBL Rd.8 Wrap: Not exactly Firing
IT'S getting tougher by the round for defending WNBL champion Townsville to keep sight of the potential threepeat it should be chasing.
