Regular Season Round 14: Nuggets - Whai 59-66

Date: June 23, 2024
There was a small surprise when ninth ranked Whai (6-11) won against 7th ranked Nuggets (6-11) in Dunedin 66-59 on Sunday. Whai made 16-of-21 free shots (76.2 percent) during the game. They also forced 19 Nuggets turnovers. American forward Phil Carr (206-1995, college: Morgan St.) notched a double-double by scoring 16 points and 10 rebounds to lead the effort and the former international guard Jayden Bezzant (188-1996, college: NW Nazarene) supported him with 17 points. Four Whai players scored in double figures. Whai's coach Matt Lacey used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Even 20 points and 6 rebounds by American Kimani Lawrence (202-1998, college: Arizona St.) did not help to save the game for Nuggets. His fellow American import guard Zaccheus Darko-Kelly (198-1997, college: Providence, MT) added 16 points and 11 rebounds for the hosts. Whai moved-up to eighth place, which they share with defeated Nuggets. Nuggets lost third consecutive game. Whai will meet at home higher ranked Bulls (#5) in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Nuggets will play against Saints in Wellington and hope to secure a win.
