    The Filipino center got the starting nod for the third straight game as he delivered seven points, 10 rebounds, and one assist to claim their third straight win in this four-game homestand.

    Robert Franks topscored for Adelaide with his 20 points, eight boards, an assist, a steal, and a block, while Daniel Johnson came off the bench and brought 20 points and seven rebounds in the win.

    Mitch McCarron added 16 points, four boards, and two dimes, including three crucial freebies in the final minute to douse South East Melbourne's late run after slicing what was once a 14-point lead, 89-75, down to just four, 89-85, with 1:10 to play.

    Antonius Cleveland did the dirty work for the 36ers his 13 points, 11 rebounds five assists, and five steals as they improved to a 9-8 record.
