The former international center Suzy Batkovic-Brown (193-80) helped adding 22 points and 7 rebounds. Four Adelaide Lightning players scored in double figures. Adelaide Lightning's coach Peter Buckle felt very confident using 10 players and allowed the starting five to rest. The best for the losing side was forward Olivia Thompson (185-93) with 14 points and 8 rebounds and naturalized British center Alexandra Bunton (198-93, college: Wichita St.) scored 8 points. Adelaide Lightning moved-up to third place, which they share with Bulleen B. and Dandenong R. Loser AIS still closes the standings with four games lost. They share the position with Waves.
