Perth secured a nine-point victory over Tasmania in a game defined by perimeter efficiency and turnover margin. Tasmania shot 46.5% from the field and 44.8% from three-point range, but their shooting was offset by a 17-turnover performance that allowed Perth to capitalize. Perth, meanwhile, committed only nine turnovers while maintaining a 48.6% field goal percentage. The Wildcats' advantage in free throws (12-of-15, 80%) and a more efficient offense, reflected in their 56.9% effective field goal percentage, proved decisive. In the fourth quarter, with the score at 66-78, Perth extended their lead. A sequence of efficient scoring and defensive stops, including a steal-and-turnover pair, helped the Wildcats build a lead that Tasmania could not overcome. The final minute saw Perth ice the game with clutch free throws and a late basket, solidifying their win.
