Regular Season Round 16: Kings - Wildcats 75-76

Date: January 20, 2012
Sixth-ranked Kings (8-11) gave a tough game to second ranked Perth Wildcats (13-5) in Sydney on Friday. The visitors from Perth managed to secure only one-point victory 76-75. However their fans expected much easier game. The guests trailed by 2 points after three quarters before their 14-11 charge, which allowed them to win the game. Perth Wildcats looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Perth Wildcats made 8 blocks. Worth to mention a great performance of the former international forward Shawn Redhage (203-81, college: Arizona St., agency: Warren Sports International) who helped to win the game recording 15 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists and the former international center Luke Nevill (218-86, college: Utah) who added 19 points during the contest. Perth Wildcats' coach Rob Beveridge used a ten-player rotation in such tough game. At the losing side naturalized Kazakhstan swingman Anatoly Bose (200-88, college: Nicholls St., agency: Priority Sports) responded with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 10 rebounds and American power forward Jerai Grant (203-89, college: Clemson) scored 17 points and 8 rebounds. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Perth Wildcats have an impressive five-game winning streak. Defending champion keeps a position of league leader, which they share with Breakers. Kings at the other side dropped to the seventh place with 11 games lost. Perth Wildcats is looking forward to face Townsville Crocodiles (#4) in Wulguru in the next round. Kings will play on the road against the league's second-placed New Zealand Breakers in Auckland and are hoping to prove to their fans that this time they can win.
