NZBL Projections, Stats & Analysis

These Jets are not flowing

The Manawatu Jets have had a terrible season and they have been beaten badly during most games. The Jets rank second-worst in points per game with 74.3 whereas their defense allows 87.7 points per game, which is the third-worst. The Jets are the second-best offensive rebounding team so it means that they need to click on their initial shots. Shane Temara leads the team in scoring with around 17 a game whereas Robert Crawford averages around 16. John Bohannon leads all rebounders with 14 a game.

Tuatara are dominating the scene

Auckland is number one in points per game(not a surprise) with around 89 a game while they have the best defense, limiting teams to around 74 a game. Again, unsurprisingly, they are the best rebounding team with more than 41 a game. Again, they have led the league in assists per game. Chris Johnson leads the team in scoring and rebounding, whereas Robert Leo is right behind him in both metrics. Both with 15+ Points and 10+ Rebounds. Siler Schneider leads the team in assists per game with 4.4.
