Regular Season Round 4: Whai - Tuatara 78-76

Date: March 25, 2025
Bottom-ranked Tuatara (0-3) is still winless. But it was rather predictable considering how strong their opponent was. This time they lost on the road their third consecutive match to third ranked Tauranga (4-1) 78-76. Whai made 17-of-22 charity shots (77.3 percent) during the game. The winners were led by American point guard Chris Jones (178-1991, college: Louisville, agency: Haylett Sports) who scored that evening 26 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists and Australian swingman Sean Bairstow (203-2000, college: VCU) supported him with 14 points and 8 rebounds. Four Tauranga players scored in double figures. Even 31 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists by American swingman Buay Tuach (198-1995, college: LMU, agency: Haylett Sports) did not help to save the game for Tuatara. The former international forward Thomas Vodanovich (201-1994, college: JMU) added 13 points for lost side. Tauranga have a solid three-game winning streak. Whai keeps a position of league leader, which they share with Bulls. Tuatara at the other side still closes the standings with three games lost. They share the position with Giants. Whai will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Tuatara will play at home against Giants (#10) and looks forward to get finally their first victory.
