Sydney secured a 22-point victory over Perth by establishing control in the second quarter and maintaining defensive intensity throughout the game. The key factor was a disparity in field goal percentage, as Sydney shot 42.1% for the game while Perth managed just 33.3%. This shooting efficiency was particularly evident in the second quarter, where Sydney exploded for 35 points, outscoring Perth's 23 in the period. Kendric Davis led the way for Sydney with 25 points, though his 8-of-22 shooting from the field was below his season norm. Xavier Cooks provided a solid contribution with 16 points and eight rebounds. Defensively, Sydney forced 11 steals and held Perth to just 6 points in the fourth quarter. Despite a strong individual performance from Jo Lual-Acuil Jr, who scored 17 points on efficient 7-of-11 shooting, Perth struggled with turnovers, committing 17 compared to Sydney's 6.
