Regular Season Round 3: Giants - Saints 86-94

Date: March 20, 2025
But Giants were not able to use a home court advantage and were defeated by the opponent from Wellington 94-86 on Thursday night. Saints made 25-of-30 free shots (83.3 percent) during the game, while Giants only scored five points from the stripe. It was an exceptional evening for Australian guard Shaun Bruce (192-1991) who led the winners and scored 23 points and 5 assists. International guard Izayah Leafa (188-1996, college: Sacramento St.) accounted for 22 points and 7 assists for the winning side. Saints' coach used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. American forward Brice Johnson (206-1994, college: UNC, agency: DBA Reed) came up with a double-double by scoring 25 points and 11 rebounds and forward Liam Judd (196-2001) added 19 points and 5 rebounds (on 7-of-8 shooting from the field) respectively for Giants in the defeat. Five Saints and four Giants players scored in double figures. Saints will meet at home Sharks (#8) in the next round. Giants will play against Bulls where they are definitely not considered as a favorite in this game either.
