Bit of a change to the format for this week's Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle this week as we immediately review the Friday night NBL matches and preview the rest of Round 16 in #NBL20.
NBL Writer Chris Pike and Perth Wildcats legend Shawn Redhage team up for Episode 14 of Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle and it all gets underway with a full wrap up of the Friday night Round 16 NBL action which saw the New Zealand Breakers beat the Sydney Kings to keep their season alive, and the Perth Wildcats thump the South East Melbourne Phoenix.
The hosts give a full breakdown of both those matches and what the results mean, and especially discuss the performance of Mitch Norton for the Wildcats in the absence of Damian Martin and Bryce Cotton in his 100th NBL appearance.
The Scoring Machine also provides some insight into new Phoenix signing Devondrick Walker and why this might be the start of a longer-term role for him at South East Melbourne.
Discussion then turns to the NBL Next Stars program with LaMelo Ball having now played his last game with the Illawarra Hawks and RJ Hampton again sidelined at the Breakers.
The show then finishes off with a full preview of the remaining four matches of Round 16 with the Brisbane Bullets hosting the Illawarra Hawks, Cairns Taipans playing the Adelaide 36ers, Breakers hosting Melbourne United and the Kings backing up at home to the Phoenix.
