Regular Season Round 2: Cairns - SE Melbourne 87-80

Date: October 5, 2023
The game between closely ranked teams ended with Cairns Taipans' home victory over Melbourne Phoenix 87-80 on Thursday. Cairns Taipans outrebounded Melbourne Phoenix 47-31 including 37 on the defensive glass. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Cairns Taipans made 7 blocks. American guard Patrick Miller (185-1992, college: Tennessee St., agency: Slash Sports) notched 23 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists to lead the effort and Swedish power forward Bo Klintman (206-2003, college: Wake Forest) supported him with 15 points and 11 rebounds. Even 20 points and 8 rebounds by the former international swingman Mitch Creek (196-1992) did not help to save the game for Melbourne Phoenix. American-Puerto Rican point guard Gary Browne (185-1993, college: WVU) added 13 points and 4 assists for the guests. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Cairns Taipans will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Melbourne Phoenix will play against JackJumpers and hope to win that game.
