Regular Season Round 16: Giants - Rams 87-89

Date: May 24, 2025
Tenth-ranked Giants (3-10) gave a tough game to first ranked Rams (10-2) in Nelson on Saturday. The visitors from Christchurch managed to secure only two-point victory 89-87. However their fans expected much easier game. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Giants. Rams looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of American forward CJ Penha (202-2000, college: Boston Coll.) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 16 points and 14 rebounds and Australian guard Sean Macdonald (188-2000) who added 18 points and 6 assists during the contest. At the losing side American point guard Alex Robinson (185-1995, college: TCU) responded with 22 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals and center Callum McRae (216-1999, college: Sacramento St.) scored 14 points and 9 rebounds (perfect from the field making all seven shots !!!). Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Rams have an impressive six-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains first position with 10-2 record. Giants at the other side keep the tenth place with ten games lost. Rams are looking forward to face Hawks (#4) in Tamatea in the next round. Giants will have a break next round.
