HBH vs MWJ Dream11 Prediction: Hawke’s Bay Hawks will have to win their last New Zealand Basketball League regular-season game if they are to avoid a first-round series against the Wellington Saints. A win against Manawatu Jets at Pettigrew Green Arena, on Thursday afternoon, will seal the deal for them (IST). Here is everything you want to know about HBH vs MWJ Dream 11 Match Prediction.
Hawke’s Bay Hawks are second on the table having won 12 times and losing 5 in 17 previous rounds. That’s an exact record as Southland Sharks, but a better head-to-head record is keeping Hawks at second. But this is a must-win game if the Hawks are to finish the regular season as the second-best team. But there’s nothing to play for Manawatu Jets except the pride. They are second from the bottom and can’t qualify for the playoffs.
