The Perth Wildcats are through to the semi-finals, and the Wildcat Wrap team is here to break it all down!
With Josh Higgins away on media duties, Declan Paidra jumps into the co-host chair alongside Adam Batt to review Perth’s 122-105 win over South East Melbourne, fueled by a monster performance from Keanu Pinder (35 points, 11 rebounds).
The Wildcats showed glimpses of their defensive potential, holding the Phoenix to just 15 points in the fourth quarter—but can they carry that into the semi-final showdown with Melbourne United?
The boys analyze the key matchups, with Kristian Doolittle’s versatility, Bryce Cotton’s battle against United’s elite defense, and Keanu Pinder’s X-factor all under the microscope.
