Regular Season Round 12: Melbourne - Cairns 84-81

Date: December 23, 2022
The most exciting game of round 12 in the NBL took place in Melbourne. This derby game ended with only three-point defeat on the road of higher ranked Cairns Taipans (10-7) to eighth ranked United (9-12) 84-81 on Friday evening. United made 20-of-25 free shots (80.0 percent) during the game. Worth to mention a great performance of American guard Rayjon Tucker (191-1997, college: UALR) who helped to win the game recording 27 points and 8 rebounds and the former international guard Chris Goulding (192-1988) who added 19 points during the contest. The best for the losing side was American guard Tahjere McCall (193-1994, college: Tennessee St.) with 21 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists and his fellow American import forward DJ Hogg (203-1996, college: Texas A&M) scored 20 points and 5 rebounds. Four Cairns Taipans players scored in double figures. United have a solid three-game winning streak. They maintain eighth position with 9-12 record. Cairns Taipans at the other side keep the fourth place with seven games lost. United are looking forward to face Bullets (#9) in Brisbane in the next round. Cairns Taipans will play on the road against Illawarra Hawks (#10) in Gwynneville and are hoping to win this game.
