Regular Season Round 4: Cairns - Perth 77-80

Date: October 10, 2025
The most exciting game of round 4 in the NBL took place in Cairns. This derby game ended with only three-point home defeat of 5th ranked Taipans (2-3) to fourth ranked Wildcats (3-1) 80-77 on Friday evening. Perth dominated down low during the game scoring 60 of its points in the paint compared to Taipans' 38. Worth to mention a great performance of naturalized South Sudanese center Jo Lual-Acuil (213-1994, college: Baylor) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 30 points and 10 rebounds and American Dylan Windler (201-1996, college: Belmont) who added 26 points and 11 rebounds during the contest. At the losing side American Andrew Andrews (188-1993, college: Washington) responded with 21 points and his fellow American import center Marcus Lee (208-1994, college: California) produced a double-double by scoring 12 points and 12 rebounds. Both coaches used bench players in such tough game. Wildcats have a solid three-game winning streak. Perth moved-up to third place. Cairns at the other side keep the fifth position with three games lost. Perth will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Cairns will play on the road against the league's leader Melbourne Utd (#1) and are hoping to prove to their fans that this time they can win.
