When you begin your new season with two defeats on the bounce, the beginning is emotive of this season going on a downward spiral and becoming a tricky one for you. However, the ability to face your adversary and wrench out of the pickle you find yourself is what defines your true worth as a champion, traits Franklin Bulls have shown in abundance in the ongoing season of the National Basketball League.
The team took time off the court, sitting down to address the aberrations which had seen them lose two straight ties in the opening exchanges. And there has been no looking back ever since with the team going from strength to strength to register three wins in a row, ones which have taken them from the trenches of the league standings all the way to third position.
Its form which Manawatu Jets can draw inspiration on, a side which has seen its incontinently hold it back in the league. Although they did manage to register an 85-79 win in their most recent soiree, the slim and slender manner they managed to scram their way to a win to hardly exudes confidence when they take on a gripping and electric opposition today.
Probable Winner
For Franklin Bulls, attack has been the name of the game ever since game one and it’s a gameplan they have stayed true to ever since. This pathbreaking form will be a downside for the Jets, a side which will fail to put up a resilient enough wall infront of Franklin today.

Dream 11 Picks
Point Guard
The opening ambit of our Dream 11 side finds equal representation in it. We have gone in with the one player apiece from either side, names who are picked up not only due to their expertise but their meagre price tag as well.
We’ll be throwing open the doors of our Dream 11 with the pick of Haize Walker from Manawatu Jets after the point guard dropped 11 points for his side the last time around. Elsewhere, Jackson Stubbins is our pick from the other side with his well rounded skill set seeing his pull off an all-round performance of 5 points, 2 assists and 4 rebounds.
Shooting Guard
The Franklin Bulls man will be paired up by Nikau McCullough who came up with 14 points in the bygone encounter, a performance which saw him guide his side towards a win as he opened the zone for himself to send down a stunning show of shooting from the deep.
Manawatu Jets on the other hand will meanwhile find representation the form of a partnership, one on which the side’s entire chances of accruing a win from the tie will lie on. We begin our duo with the selection of Jayden Bezzant who was responsible for a gargantuan game winning 17 point, 5 assist and 4 rebound performance.
Nikau McCullough will be his partner, a name who moved in tandem with Jayden in that tie to shoot a staggering 14 points, ones which were a testament to his ability to send down floating jump points.
Small Forward
The real fulcrum of Manawatu Jets’ squad will storm his way into our Dream 11 component in this ambit. Hyrum Harris was responsible for a game winning 13-21 double-double one which saw his attacking rebounds ensure the second chance points moved in the side’s kitty.
Power Forward
Where Jets have Jets have Harris, Franklin Bulls on the other hand have Sam Timmins to counter him. The player sent down a luscious and eloquent filled 24 points and 12 rebounds performance in his previous sortie, a performance which saw Franklin Bulls maraud their way to their successive win.
Centre
With 38 points inside the paint, numbers which were registered owing to his floating jump points and reverse scoops, Tom Vodanaovich will become the last player to be inculcated in our framework for the encounter.
Star Player
It’s that piquant 38 point showing which sees us make Tom our star player while Harris is the vice-captain.
