Regular Season Round 5: Cairns - Perth 78-84

Date: December 31, 2021
NBL top team - Perth Wildcats (5-1) added another victory to their record on Friday. This time they beat sixth ranked Cairns Taipans (2-2) 84-78. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Cairns Taipans. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Perth Wildcats made 7 blocks. American guard Bryce Cotton (182-92, college: Providence, agency: Pensack Sports) stepped up and scored 29 points and 6 assists (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line) for the winners and his fellow American import forward Victor Law (201-95, college: Northwestern, agency: Pensack Sports) chipped in 17 points and 6 rebounds. South Sudanese forward Majok Deng (205-93, college: ULM) responded with 27 points and 7 rebounds and American center Stephen Zimmerman (211-96, college: UNLV) scored 12 points and 9 rebounds. Perth Wildcats have a solid series of three victories in a row. They maintain first place with 5-1 record. Cairns Taipans at the other side keep the sixth position with two games lost. They share it with Brisbane. Perth Wildcats are looking forward to face bottom-ranked New Zealand Breakers (#10) in Auckland in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Cairns Taipans will play at home against Bullets (#6) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
