Coach Salerno's Picks



Game 1

A see-saw affair in the only meeting between the leagues top 2 teams. The game had playoff intensity from the Jump, with neither team pulling away from each other until the final moments. Our most intense game off the season.

An individual performance for the ages, Billy White goes for 52 points on what was the most efficient individual performance in NBL Canada History. 18/20 From the floor, 8/10 from 3pt, 8/8 From the free throw line.

Game 3

The #1 Defensive team in the NBL puts on their best defensive performance of the season. Holding KW to shooting 36% from the floor, and 31% from the 3pt line. Swarming pressure consistently all over the floor by the Magic and execution of a defensive game plan that held KW leading scorers Akeem Scott and Akeem Ellis to a combine 4/18 from the floor for a total of 12 combine points, 21 points less the their season average per game.
