Adelaide secured a four-point victory over New Zealand, largely due to efficiency in the fourth quarter combined with a second-half defensive effort. While the Breakers rallied in the second quarter to take a lead, the 36-33 advantage for New Zealand in that period was offset by a 23-17 Adelaide run in the third quarter. The 36 to 17 scoring differential in the final frame was the decisive factor. Both teams shot at similar efficiency rates, with Adelaide's 47.8% effective field goal percentage slightly edging out New Zealand's 47.1%. However, turnover frequency was a significant differentiator, as Adelaide committed only 8 turnovers compared to New Zealand's 10. New Zealand's offensive rebounding percentage was notably higher at 35.7%, but their free-throw rate was lower. The game was decided by clutch free throws in the final seconds, with Adelaide making five consecutive free throws to close out the game after New Zealand tied the score at 79.
