Regular Season Round 12: Wildcats - Breakers 86-62

Date: December 23, 2011
The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of top-ranked New Zealand Breakers (10-4) on the court of second ranked Perth Wildcats on Friday night. Visitors were rolled over by Perth Wildcats 86-62. It ended at the same time the five-game winning streak of New Zealand Breakers. It may be a crucial game in the contest for the top position in the league. The game was mostly controlled by Perth Wildcats. New Zealand Breakers managed to win third quarter 19-17. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Perth Wildcats forced 20 New Zealand Breakers turnovers. 24 personal fouls committed by New Zealand Breakers helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. It was a good game for international forward Jesse Wagstaff (203-86, college: Metro St.) who led his team to a victory with 23 points. American guard Kevin Lisch (188-86, college: St.Louis, agency: Warren Sports International) contributed with 18 points and 6 rebounds (went 8 for 8 at the free throw line) for the winners. American guard Cedric Jackson (191-86, college: Cleveland St.) replied with 15 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists and New Zealand swingman Thomas Abercrombie (198-87, college: Washington St., agency: Priority Sports) added 14 points in the effort for New Zealand Breakers. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Defending champion maintains second position with 9-5 record behind leader Breakers. New Zealand Breakers at the other side still keep top place with four games lost. Perth Wildcats are looking forward to face Townsville Crocodiles (#5) in Wulguru in the next round. New Zealand Breakers will play on the road against Cairns Taipans (#6) and are hoping to win this game.
