Regular Season Round 12: Adelaide - Sydney 72-89

Date: December 29, 2016
Bottom-ranked Adelaide Lightning is still unable to win any game. But it was rather predictable considering how strong their opponent was. This time they could not use their home court advantage losing their 15th consecutive match to fourth ranked Sydney Uni Flames (10-5) 89-72. The game was mostly controlled by Sydney Uni Flames. Adelaide Lightning was better in second period 20-19. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They outrebounded Adelaide Lightning 52-30 including a 32-18 advantage in defensive rebounds. Sydney Uni Flames players were unselfish on offense dishing 21 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of American forward Asia Taylor (185-91, college: Louisville, agency: LBM Management) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 26 points, 14 rebounds and 4 assists and guard Alex Wilson (174-94) who added 18 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists during the contest. Five Sydney Uni Flames players scored in double figures. The best for the losing side was American guard Samantha Logic (175-92, college: Iowa, agency: LBM Management) with 17 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists and her fellow American import forward Colleen Planeta (188-88, college: Point Loma) scored 17 points and 7 rebounds. Both coaches used bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Sydney Uni Flames have a solid three-game winning streak. They moved-up to second place, which they share with Bendigo. Adelaide Lightning at the other side still closes the standings with 15 games lost. Sydney Uni Flames will play against Canberra Capitals (#6) at home in the next round. Adelaide Lightning will play against the league's leader Dandenong Rangers and hopes to get finally their first victory.
