Sydney secured a comfortable 25-point victory over Brisbane, largely dictated by efficiency on offense and turnover margin. Brisbane shot just 34.9% from the field but managed to keep the game within reach through three-point shooting, making 10-of-33 attempts (30.3%). Sydney countered with a more balanced attack, finishing 37-of-74 from the floor (50%) and capitalizing on their interior presence. Xavier Cooks led the charge with a highly efficient 20 points on 7-of-8 shooting, while Tim Soares added 14 points and 7 rebounds. Brisbane's Sam McDaniel was their top scorer with 18 points, going 4-of-7 from deep, but the team's turnovers (17) and inability to convert second-chance opportunities contributed to the margin. Sydney controlled the second half, outscoring Brisbane 45-40, to seal the win.
