The Giants opened the matchup fairly evenly, with both teams scoring 23 points in the first half. However, S.E Melbourne shifted gears in the third period, outscoring Brisbane 37-22 to take firm control of the contest. While the Giants shot just 42.9% from the field, they capitalized on their opportunities with 16 made three-pointers and generated 25 assists, a testament to their ball movement and efficient offense. In contrast, Brisbane struggled to execute, finishing the night with 17 turnovers that S.E Melbourne turned into 13 points.
