The Kings have won 4 straight against Brisbane and are the in-form team coming into this clash. They are tipped to take the win, but a +12.5 line to the Bullets is a hard one to ignore.

Over the last 4 games Brisbane have shown significant improvements despite having a 1-3 record over that span. They are 4th in the league in scoring, keeping their opponents to the 2nd fewest field goal attempts, have a positive differential in both defensive and offensive rebounding as well as turnovers.

Sydney are a solid team this year, there is no ifs buts or maybes about that one. Not only have they been beating bad teams like last season, they have been winning against good teams. They are though 6-6 as the favourite and would have covered this line only once in the last 6 games against Brisbane.

With the squad finally starting to settle and Hunter Maldonado coming in to help distribute the ball around the court, Brisbane are a good shot to cover the large line.

Take Brisbane on the line as the underdog, the Game Total to go Under, player prop markets are difficult in this spot but if we need to back someone in then Tyrell Harrison for 26.5 Points, Assists & Rebounds is a good shout.

Brisbane have covered this line in 5 of the last 6 games against Sydney.
3 of the last 4 games between these teams have gone Under, both teams rank in bottom four in the league for shot attempts and opponent shot attempts over the last 4 games.
The only major stat where Sydney are outside the top 5 is rebounding, they are 7th in both offensive and defensive boards.
Tyrell Harrison has had double digit rebounds in 4 straight games and 23+ points in his last 2.

Sydney Kings Form & Team News

Sydney continue to win, their most recent game was the Christmas Day spectacular against defending Champions Illawarra Hawks which ended 108-84 in the Kings favour.

The win was their 5th in a row and keeps them in touch with the top 3 teams with a 12-7 record, the same amount of losses as United above them and 1 more loss than SEM in 2nd.

Kendric Davis once again led the way in scoring with 27 pts and 9 assists. Xavier Cooks added 21 pts and 6 rebounds while Jaylin Galloway and Kouat Noi both scored in double digits off the bench. Sydney rank 3rd in the league in bench points, 3rd in scoring overall and 3rd in scoring defence.

Brisbane Bullets Form & Team News

Apart from a woeful second quarter, Brisbane did quite well against Melbourne United in their most recent outing. The game finished 92-87 in favour of the opposition but Brisbane won the second half 42-33 and only lost the first quarter by 2 pts.

Tyrell Harrison and Javon Freeman-Liberty both had 20+ pt games with Harrison also grabbing 11 boards. All three of the games this season against United have been relatively close games, indicating the matchup works well for Brisbane.

The Bullets' woes beyond the arc continued though with only 7 of 28 attempts falling. They also shot just 63.6% from the free throw line, both numbers inferior to their opponent and typical of Brisbane’s season.
