Regular Season Round 8: Adelaide - Bendigo 66-78

Date: December 28, 2022
Very expected game when 6th ranked Adelaide Lightning (3-8) was defeated at home by second ranked Bendigo Spirit (8-1) 78-66 on Wednesday. Bendigo Spirit dominated down low during the game scoring 48 of its points in the paint compared to Adelaide Lightning's 28. They outrebounded Adelaide Lightning 52-31 including a 36-24 advantage in defensive rebounds. The best player for the winners was the former international swingman Anneli Maley (187-1998, college: TCU) who had a double-double by scoring 19 points and 24 rebounds. The former international power forward Kelsey Griffin (188-1987, college: Nebraska) chipped in a double-double by scoring 15 points and 11 rebounds. Four Bendigo Spirit players scored in double figures. The former international swingman Stephanie Talbot (188-1994) produced a double-double by scoring 21 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists and guard Marena Whittle (180-1994, college: NDSU, agency: LBM Management) added 6 points and 8 rebounds respectively for the hosts. Adelaide Lightning's coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Bendigo Spirit maintains second position with 8-1 record behind leader Melbourne. Adelaide Lightning lost fifth consecutive game. They dropped to the seventh place with eight games lost. Bendigo Spirit will meet at home league's leader Boomers in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Adelaide Lightning will play against Townsville Fire (#4) and hope to secure a win.
