Perth's Jo Lual-Acuil Jr is out, and John Rillie called him "a huge piece of it" when he plays. Kristian Doolittle went down in the scrimmage but "should be fine to play," he said, calling it precautionary. Jaron Rillie returns but is "still on like his minute restriction."
Perth coach John Rillie: Jo Lual-Acuil Jr (calf) is out on 2 October, no return timeline. Brandon Knight won't play either, still going through medical: "Let him get a good week of practice under him." Jaron Rillie is "looking promising" to play some role after being held back.
