Regular Season Round 2: Sydney - Cairns 74-77

Date: September 28, 2025
A very close game took place in Sydney between Taipans and Kings. Taipans got a very close victory on the road over Kings. Taipans managed to escape with a 3-point win 77-74 on Sunday evening. The former international forward Jack McVeigh (203-1996, college: Nebraska) scored 24 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists to lead the charge for the winners and American Andrew Andrews (188-1993, college: Washington) chipped in 16 points and 7 assists during the contest. American point guard Kendric Davis (183-1999, college: Memphis) responded with 21 points and the former international guard Matthew Dellavedova (193-1990, college: SMC) scored 10 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Kings' coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Taipans will meet at home Adelaide in the next round. Kings will play against NZL Breakers and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
