Lat for the win as Hawks fall: NBL
THEY went into the match without Sam Waardenburg, Bobi Klintman and Jonah Antonio, then had Akoldah Gak, Taran Armstrong and Tajhere McCall foul out, Bul Kuol and Lat Mayen on four fouls in a 28-16 disparity, and Illawarra shooting 32 free throws to Cairns' 11. It may not be the Taipans' greatest victory in their NBL life, but it's surely up there.
Sixers flummox Phoenix in road rout: NBL

NBL Rankings, Tips 16: Time to smarten up
LAST round in the NBL easily could have been dubbed "Brain Fade Round". First Tassie didn't foul late against Brisbane. Then Sydney left its big boy pants on the plane in Adelaide. Zylan Cheatham tried to call an on-court time-out, Jordon Crawford took a three when his team had time to win with an easier basket.
WNBL Rankings, Tips 12: The Spirit is willing
CAN our Team of the Week, Bendigo, make a run at the WNBL playoffs? At 6-8 the Spirit have two games in hand on Sydney (8-8) and if pundits rate the Flames a top-four chance, then why not Bendigo? Southside and Perth are two teams in the hunt so this round is huge for Kennedy Kereama's crew.

NBL TotW15: Soaring up the hit parade
WHAT an amazing round that was considering a few teams looked gross in one outing, great in another. Adelaide, Sydney and New Zealand spring to mind for example. But when it came down to selecting our NBL Team of the Week for Round 15, it was easy to go for the club storming up the charts with a bullet.

Kings sing in pink, Bullets fire: NBL
NATHAN Sobey returned from injury to lead Brisbane over Illawarra before the Sydney Kings turned their "Pink Hoops" day to raise breast cancer awareness and funding, into a sell-out success as they routed New Zealand in front of a record 16,605 crowd, Jaylen Adams scoring 39 points.
'Night of the Gak' in Cairns, Perth: NBL
IT was most definitely the "Night of the Gaks", with Cairns' Akoldah Gak setting career-highs with a 21-point, 14-rebound double and South East Melbourne's Gorjok Gak leading the Phoenix with 11 boards. But it was a night to forget for the Adelaide 36ers, before the Wildcats pantsed the Phoenix in Perth.
