The Adelaide will go against Illawarra Hawks in the NBL Australia match on January 6 at Adelaide Entertainment Centre (Adelaide). With the NBA regular season just days away, Australia’s basketball scene, the NBL, has been active for quite some time. The games aren’t stacked like in the NBA, and you can only play one or two games a day with breaks in between. The 36ers surprised the NBA and his NBL world alike when he surprised the NBA’s top team, the Phoenix Suns 134.
124 as both Robert Franks and Craig Randall passed their 30-point milestone. The 36ers three-ball rang the bell against the Suns, taking advantage of a disappointing defense to fill in his 3-pointers for a staggering 22 on a 50% shooting percentage. With 28 total assists and 40-36 rebounds, he had the advantage. Three players scored his 20+ points, but given that he faced the Suns in a preseason non-elements game, will that be the case regularly as he steps into a more focused defense? Can the 36’s keep the momentum going? Kai Sotto still had very little time to play, despite the crushing defeat.

When the Adelaide 36ers opened the National Basketball League season in Australia on Thursday, October 13, when he lost 97-72 at home to the Tasmanian Jack Jumpers, the Philippine big man was just five minutes behind. Sotto missed the first half entirely and played sparingly in his two-quarter wire-for-wire loss in the final, finishing with four points, three rebounds, and one steal. The 36ers never recovered from a 22-point lead in the first quarter thanks to a hot shot from JackJumper guard Josh Magette.
Adelaide: Shannon Shorter, Terrance Ferguson, Diamon Simpson, Alexander Mudronja, Majok Deng
