The Cairns Taipans were defeated by the Sydney Kings 99-77 in the last match. Taipans lost both the matches they played and have looked poor on the offensive and defensive end. But as it is just a NBL pre-season game expect them to build the chemistry especially with new players in the lineup. Tanner Groves has been consistent averaging 15 points, 9.5 rebounds per game.
The Wildcats played three pre-season games and won all of them, they have retained most of the players from the last season. Bryce Cotton scored 32 & 13 points in the last two games, while young Ben Henshall got his first start against the Illawarra Hawks and finished with a double – double (18 points, 10 rebounds). Elijah Pepper coming off the bench scored 17 point. He could get extended minutes against the Taipans.
