april 14th 9:30pm
Looking to put an end to this inconsistent patch of form, the Perth Wiildcats face the Adelaide 36ers on Thursday night after knocking off the Breakers last weekend.
Perth rebounded off a close loss to Melbourne United with a nine-point win over New Zealand to hold down fourth spot in the NBL table, while Adelaide suffered its fourth consecutive defeat after falling to Brisbane on Monday.

If Adelaide wants to reverse the result, it will need to somehow put the clamps on that trio, but is it easier said than done on a road trip to Perth.
No reason why the result of March 6 will change.
Wildcats to cover the spread with a leg in the air.
