Perth are dangerous when everything clicks, but against Sydney it rarely has. Game one of the semi-final feels like more of the same.
How this game shapes up
Sydney’s confidence is sky-high after closing the season on a huge winning streak. Their offence is flowing and their defence has consistently disrupted Perth’s main scoring threats.
The Wildcats rely heavily on Kristian Doolittle to anchor their offence, but Sydney have shown they can take him out of the game.
If the Kings get Davis rolling early again, Perth will be chasing from the start.
Best Bets
Kendric Davis Over 26.5 Points
Perth simply haven’t found a way to stop Davis. His scoring against the Wildcats has been relentless, and if the Kings’ offence flows through him again, another big night looks likely.
Kendric Davis 3+ Three Pointers
Davis has torched Perth from deep in recent meetings. If the Wildcats continue to struggle containing him on the perimeter, he should have plenty of opportunities to knock down multiple threes.
What could go wrong?
Perth showed in the elimination final they can lift their physicality when the stakes rise.
If the Wildcats dominate the boards and turn this into a slower, inside-heavy contest, they could disrupt Sydney’s rhythm and keep the margin tight.
