Talking pointsAdelaide’s response<\/p>\n

The 36ers come into this Round 3 clash on the back of their heaviest defeat of NBL27, in which coach Trevor Gleeson called it “it looked like a men’s team playing against a kids team out there.”<\/p>\n

The catalyst for that loss was the Sixers’ slow start and defence, in which they conceded 65 points to the Hawks in just 20 minutes of action.<\/p>\n

Returning home, where they haven’t lost this season, expect the Sixers to make a statement and do all they can to return to the winner’s circle.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Can anyone stop PJC?<\/p>\n

Superstar guard Parker Jackson-Cartwright has arguably been one of the best, if not the best, players through the opening two rounds of NBL27.<\/p>\n

He is averaging a career-high 26.5 points (more than six points above his previous best), which is tied for the second-highest mark in the League with six-time MVP Bryce Cotton, who he will come up against on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Not only that, he is currently second in assists (9.5), highlighting his importance to the Breakers’ offence as they attempt to record their first away win of NBL27.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
