Sydney controlled the tempo and shot efficiency throughout the matchup, leading to a decisive 22-point victory. They outshot the Breakers, converting 50.7% of their field goal attempts compared to New Zealand's 40.9%, a difference highlighted by the Breakers' struggles from three-point range (18.8%) versus Sydney's 33.3%. New Zealand was able to secure an equal number of offensive rebounds with Sydney, but they did not generate enough second-chance opportunities to overcome their inferior field goal percentage and higher turnover rate. Kendric Davis led the charge for Sydney, scoring 28 points on 11-of-17 shooting, while Tim Soares added 16 points on 7-of-10 shooting. New Zealand's Sam Mennenga was the most productive player on the losing side, recording a double-double of 14 points and 12 rebounds. Sydney's defense was effective, limiting the Breakers to just 6 steals compared to their own 4, and forcing 12 turnovers that the Wildcats were able to capitalize on.
