In the 13th round of the Australian National Basketball League, the Tasmania JackJumpers will host the New Zealand Breakers. The game is scheduled for December 25 at 08:00 CET.
Preview
The JackJumpers have had a solid run, winning five consecutive games, which significantly improved their record. The team now holds an even 8-8 win-loss tally.
This result places Tasmania in 7th position. Most of their points this season have come at home. A win here would extend their home streak to four games. In their last outing at home, the JackJumpers defeated the Cairns Taipans 99-90.
The Breakers, however, continue their downward spiral with seven consecutive losses. Their poor performance has pushed them to the bottom of the standings, currently sitting in 9th place.
Their record is dominated by losses—10 in 17 games. In their most recent games, New Zealand was defeated by Adelaide (94-111) and Sydney (84-92).
Stats and facts
- The Breakers have lost the first half in 6 of their last 7 games and the first quarter in 5 of their last 7 games.
- Games involving New Zealand tend to be high-scoring, averaging 181 points over the last 10 games.
- The Breakers have lost seven straight games.
- The team has lost 5 out of 8 away games.
- Tasmania has won 5 of their 7 home games.
H2H
The teams last met on December 12, where Tasmania emerged victorious with a 100-76 win. This was their second consecutive victory against the Breakers this season. Over their last 10 meetings, the teams have averaged fewer than 165 total points per game.
Key player
In their last matchup, Jordon Crawford stood out, scoring 24 points, grabbing 3 rebounds, and providing 4 assists in just 22 minutes. Statistically, Milton Doyle is a standout for the JackJumpers, while Parker Jackson-Cartwright is the key player for the Breakers.
Prediction
Tasmania is well-positioned to claim their third straight win over the Breakers this season. The JackJumpers are on a winning streak, while the Breakers continue to struggle. Additionally, the low odds on Tasmania reflect analysts’ confidence in their success. I recommend a bet on Tasmania’s individual total points. In 4 of their last 5 games, they scored over 90 points. My pick: Tasmania to score over 89.5 points at 1.68 odds.
