ROUND 1 BOX SCORE

KEY MATCH UP 

NATHAN SOBEY vs BRYCE COTTON

Nathan Sobey and Bryce Cotton are names that are synonymous with the NBL. Both are athletic guards, with the ability to change the momentum of a game and entertaining to watch in their own right.

Upon his return from injury, Sobey has continued to grow in NBL23. Last game he had a double-double with 14 points and 10 assists. The Bullets will require the Australian Boomer to step up in the clash with notable players missing from the squad this game.

Cotton is currently averaging 22ppg and 4.5apg. The 3x NBL MVP has proven time and time again of his scoring prowess in the competition.

The battle of the guards will be integral to the end result of the game on Thursday night.
