Kai Sotto and the Adelaide 36ers falter late and waste an 18-point fourth-quarter lead against Cairns Taipans as their four-game winning streak comes to an end in the NBL. NBL23
MANILA, Philippines – Kai Sotto and the Adelaide 36ers failed to wrap up the year on a positive note as their four-game winning streak came to an ugly end following an 86-83 defeat at the hands of the Cairns Taipans in the National Basketball League in Australia on Saturday, December 31.
Scott spearheaded Cairns’ blistering fourth-quarter blast as he unloaded 10 of his 31 points in the final 6 minutes and 30 seconds of the ball game, where the Taipans outscored the 36ers, 24-5. Despite the loss, Sotto impressed once again as a starter for Adelaide for the fifth straight outing as the 7-foot-3 Filipino big man tallied 8 points on a near perfect 3-of-4 clip from the field, to go along with 4 rebounds and a +/- of +5 in 11 minutes and 32 seconds of action.
