S.E Melbourne secured a 19-point victory over Adelaide by controlling the offensive tempo and limiting turnovers. Adelaide's Bryce Cotton provided a strong individual performance with 30 points on 10-of-20 shooting, but the 36% mark from three-point range limited the 36ers' efficiency. The series of close quarters, with Adelaide scoring 20 or fewer points in three of four quarters, prevented them from mounting a sustained comeback. S.E Melbourne's efficiency was highlighted by a 58% true shooting percentage, driven by Ian Clark's 27 points on 11-of-18 shooting and Jordan Hunter's 20-point, nine-rebound effort. The 36ers struggled with ball security, committing 16 turnovers compared to S.E Melbourne's 13, while the visitors capitalized on their opportunities, shooting 38% from deep and outrebounding the home team 42-32.
