Regular Season Round 14: Adelaide - Canberra 61-67

Date: January 20, 2026
Rather predictable result when fifth ranked Canberra Capitals (8-10) beat on the road bottom-ranked Adelaide Lightning (5-15) 67-61 on Tuesday. Canberra dominated down low during the game scoring 44 of its points in the paint compared to Adelaide Lightning's 24. The former international power forward Zitina Aokuso (193-1998) scored 9 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists to lead the charge for the winners and forward Nyadiew Puoch (190-2004) chipped in 13 points and 6 rebounds during the contest. The former international forward Steph Talbot (188-1994) responded with 21 points and 8 rebounds (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line) and New Zealand forward Charlotte Whittaker (190-2000, college: Colorado, agency: LBM Management) scored 9 points and 8 rebounds. Canberra maintains fifth position with 8-10 record. Loser Adelaide Lightning dropped to the bottom place with 15 games lost. Canberra will meet at home higher ranked Bendigo (#3) in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Adelaide will play against Geelong U. (#7) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
