New Zealand secured a 13-point victory over Tasmania by maintaining consistent scoring output across the first three quarters, while Tasmania struggled to match that tempo, particularly in the opening period. The Tall Blacks (New Zealand) shot 48.6 percent from the field, a rate that proved superior to Tasmania's 44 percent, and their efficiency was boosted by an effective field goal percentage of 55.6 percent. While both teams finished with 10 made three-pointers, New Zealand's volume from deep was higher (10/29 compared to Tasmania's 10/37), and they were able to generate additional scoring opportunities through free throws, hitting 76 percent of their attempts compared to Tasmania's 62.5 percent. Turnovers were low for both teams, but New Zealand was slightly cleaner with 10 compared to Tasmania's 9. Rebounding was controlled by New Zealand, who won the battle 45-46 (counting offensive and defensive combined) but held a significant edge in offensive rebounds (17 to 14), which provided extra possessions. Parker Jackson-Cartwright led New Zealand with a 16-point, 12-assist double-double, while Izaiah Brockington added 22 points on 9-of-17 shooting. For Tasmania, Bryce Hamilton had a strong outing with 21 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists, and Will Magnay also contributed 18 points.
