Regular Season Round 20: Adelaide - Cairns 93-73

Date: December 24, 2025
NBL top team - Adelaide 36ers (16-4) had no problems winning another game. This time they crushed tenth ranked Taipans (5-15) in Findon 93-73. Adelaide players were unselfish on offense dishing 24 assists. The winners were led by American guard Bryce Cotton (182-1992, college: Providence, agency: Pensack Sports) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 22 points, 6 rebounds and 11 assists (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line) and Serbian-American power forward Nick Rakocevic (211-1997, college: USC, agency: Slash Sports) supported him with 19 points and 13 rebounds. Adelaide 36ers' coach Mike Wells used entire bench and allowed the starting five to rest. Even 19 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists by New Zealand forward Samuel Waardenburg (208-1999, college: Miami, FL) did not help to save the game for Cairns. American Andrew Andrews (188-1993, college: Washington) added 15 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists for the guests. Adelaide maintains first position with 16-4 record. Cairns at the other side stay at the bottom place with 15 games lost. Adelaide will play against Perth (#5) at home in the next round. Cairns will have a break next round.
