Regular Season Round 7: Saints - Bulls 126-88

Date: May 10, 2026
No shocking result in a game when fourth ranked Saints (5-3) crushed 7th ranked Bulls (3-5) in Wellington 126-88 on Sunday. Saints made 30-of-35 free shots (85.7 percent) during the game, while Bulls only scored fourteen points from the stripe. Saints forced 19 Bulls turnovers and outrebounded them 45-30 including a 34-19 advantage in defensive rebounds. Saints looked well-organized offensively handing out 38 assists comparing to just 18 passes made by Bulls' players. American players dominated the game. It was an exceptional evening for guard Elijah Pepper (193-2001, college: UC Davis) who led the winners and scored 23 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Swingman Donte Ingram (198-1996, college: Loyola, IL) accounted for 26 points and 5 assists (made all of his eight free throws) for the winning side. Five Saints players scored in double figures. Guard Jace Carter (198-2003, college: Texas A&M) came up with 32 points and 9 rebounds and guard Carter Whitt (190-2002, college: Belmont) added 19 points, 10 assists and 4 steals respectively for Bulls in the defeat. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. The victory was the fourth consecutive win for Saints. Defending champion maintains fourth place with 5-3 record. Loser Bulls dropped to the sixth position with five games lost. They share it with Airs. Saints will meet league's leader Sharks in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Bulls will have a break next round.
