Tyrell Harrison and Jacob Holt both have ankle injuries. Brisbane Bullets coach Will Weaver: "I'm concerned about their ankles, and no, I don't have any updates." Asked if he can cover centre if both miss time, he called it "a hypothetical I'm not going to talk about."

Mitch Norton started at point guard in his 400th NBL game, a Brisbane Bullets win, and says he'll retire the day he stops getting up for games: "The day that's not there is probably the day you need to hang them up. It's the best job in the world."

Brisbane's Arnas Velicka sat out. Mitch Norton: "there's not one person that's going to step up and fill his shoes. It needs to be a group job." Will Weaver said Sam McDaniel and Taine Murray missed earlier games, and players manned spots "they've never played before."

Yannis Morin stays in the plan. South East Melbourne Phoenix coach Josh King: "we're going to continue to stick with him because he can help this team win." No defensive signing either: "we're gonna stick with the guys that are in our locker room. They're here for a reason."

Nathan Sobey was "definitely sore" after a knock that South East Melbourne Phoenix coach Josh King couldn't identify as knee-on-knee or a cork. King sent him back in so he wouldn't stiffen up and gave no status: "we'll have to see how he is moving forward."
