The Adelaide 36ers are gearing up for their game against the Perth Wildcats tonight, with interim head coach Scott Ninnis revealing his plan to slow down star player Bryce Cotton. After a much-needed win over Brisbane, the 36ers are hoping to continue their positive momentum. Cotton has been in exceptional form, scoring 36 and 33 points in his last two games. Ninnis acknowledged Cotton's status as the best player in the league and emphasized the importance of containing his impact on the game
The 36ers' recent emotional win on Christmas Eve has injected a newfound excitement within the team, making them eager for the challenge against Perth. Ninnis expects a closely contested match and is confident in his team's ability to come out on top. Bringing back the enjoyment of basketball within the club has been one of Ninnis's main goals, and he believes that this win could be the start of a string of victories. The positive atmosphere within the team has been evident in recent weeks, and Ninnis hopes to maintain this energy moving forward
