John Bryan Ulanday - Pang-masa

MANILA, Philippines — Ang ikatlong sunod na tagumpay ang tangka ni Kai Sotto at ng Ade­laide 36ers kontra sa New Zealand Breakers sa 2022-2023 Australia National Basketball League (NBL) sa Adelaide Entertainment Center.

Iho-host ng 36ers ang dayong Breakers sa alas-4:30 ng hapon (Manila time) at aasang magdire-diretso ang momentum matapos ang panalo sa Illawarra Hawks at reig­ning champion na Sydney Kings.

Yukod ang Adelaide sa runner-up na Tasmania JackJumpers, 72-97, sa kanilang unang laro subalit ginapi ang Hawks, 90-80, at ang Kings, 92-88, para umangat sa 2-1 kartada sa likod ng Sydney (5-2) at New Zealand (4-2).

Sa naturang mga laban ay limitadong aksyon lang pumarada si Sotto.

Ayon kay 36ers’ head coach CJ Bruton, wala si­yang in­ten­syon na hara­ngin ang development ni Sotto ngayong season dahil pareho nilang mis­yon ang tagumpay ng Ade­laide at ang NBA dream ng Pinoy giant.

“His skillset helps us, and while you haven’t seen it a whole lot, I’m also playing to win games. I need to be successful; I want this city to be successful, I want Kai to keep improving,” ani Bruton.
