Franklin Bulls team huddle

TNM vs FKB Dream11: The New Zealand Basketball League has been in motion for multiple months now. The schedule is spread out and we see a team playing just two games a week many times. It will be the case too when the Taranaki Airs clash against the Franklin Bulls in what can be an exciting contest.

The Taranaki Airs have won seven out of 12 games, they are currently on a three-game winning streak. In their last game, Taranaki defeated the Saints 111-105 as Anthony Hilliard dropped 41 points. Meanwhile, Franklin Bulls have won 6 out of 11 games, and they have won three out of their last four games in an incredible fashion. They come into this game after defeating the Canterbury Rams 86-76 as Isaac Davidson dropped 22 points. Can the Airs win four in a row?

NZBL Projections, Stats & Analysis

Airs: Hilliard has made them better

The Airs have lost three out of their four battles before the arrival of Anthony Hilliard. Since then they have won six out of their eight games. The main reason has been the improvement on the offensive end. Anthony has had plenty of games scoring 30+. On the other hand, Javontae Douglas has showcased tremendous All-Around Skills to be a leading rebounder and playmaker many times.

Bulls are more defensive-oriented
Unlike, Airs that prefer shootouts, Bulls like to grind it out on the defensive end and can shut down that end well. Except for a game against the Saints, where they allowed 100+, the team has usually limited opponents under 80 many times. Corey Webster has led the team, scoring 20+ on most occasions. Leon Henry has led the team in rebounding whereas Webster has also led in assists along with scoring. As of now, Webster is on national duty.
