Both Sunshine Coast and Ipswich had just one win to their credit so far in the season ahead of meeting at Maroochydore Stadium so while playoffs are out of the question, avoiding the wooden spoon is still a chance.

Darwin Salties (81) lost to North Gold Coast Seahawks (83)
Just as overtime looked likely, Kendell Heremaia made a strong finish going to the basket as the buzzer sounded to deliver the North Gold Coast Seahawks the 83-81 road victory over the Darwin Salties.
With the Seahawks looking to maintain a top four spot and the Salties attempting to break into the top six, it always loomed as a fascinating match up at Darwin Basketball Stadium, and it certainly delivered.
No more than seven points separated the two teams throughout the entire contest with Darwin on top by three at quarter-time before North Gold Coast turned that around to go into half-time on top 43-37.
The Salties then outscored the Seahawks 25 points to 19 in the third period to have scores all square heading into the final period, and the stage was set for a big finish.
The Seahawks looked to have a match-winning when Jessica Boundy hit a three-pointer to give the visitors a seven-point lead with just over three minutes to go, but the Salties came biting back.
Six quick points from Abigail Curtin suddenly had Darwin back within a point before she made a tough driving layup with a minute to play to level scores up once more.
Ruby Porter then had a chance at the foul line to give the Salties the lead, but she missed both only for Mikaela Ruef to grab the rebound, dish off to Kendell Heremaia and let her run the floor, go to the rack and finish strongly.
That put North Gold Coast in front by two points as the buzzer sounded with the win improving them to 10-4 on the season to hit back from two straight losses.

MEN
Brisbane Capitals (83) lost to Logan Thunder (86)
Gabe Hadley and Zac Triplett had quite the fascinating battle with the Logan Thunder ending up prevailing in overtime 86-83 against the Brisbane Capitals.
Third position in the NBL1 North went on the line between the two teams at Auchenflower Stadium and it was a contest that more than lived up to its billing particularly with Hadley and Triplett going toe-to-toe with one another for a lot of the evening.
While the Capitals managed to open up a seven-point lead in the second quarter, by half-time Logan had closed the gap and Brisbane was just clinging to the 39-36 advantage.
Logan then worked on top in the third quarter and even had a 10-point lead in the fourth period, but Brisbane fired back and set up a thrilling finish.
A three-point play from Shaun Bruce and then a jumper from Chris Cedar gave Logan that 10-point lead with only just over three minutes to play, but the Caps responded and by the time Hadley hit from downtown, it was back to a three-point game.
It was then Isaiah Tueta who hit another triple for the Thunder to tie scores up and that's where scores would stay with Sam McDaniel unable to capitalise and make his desperation three on the buzzer after stealing the ball from Cedar.
It set up a fascinating overtime period and after Hadley hit another triple to give Brisbane the two-point with just under a minute to play, Cedar converted an and-one play for Logan to return the visitors to the lead.
The Thunder then extended the lead with a dunk in transition to Triplett and that would be enough to secure the memorable and important three-point victory.
The win improves Logan to a 10-3 record and to stay in third position with Zac Triplett putting up 21 points and nine rebounds.
Callum Dalton added 17 points and 14 rebounds, Chris Cedar 20 points, two boards and two steals, and Shaun Bruce 15 points, eight rebounds and five assists.

Last time Kendle played in the NBL1 North was back in 2022 with Logan and he marked his return on Saturday night with Southern Districts needing to call in some reinforcements with both Mitch Norton and Tyrell Harrison on national duties with the Boomers and Tall Blacks respectively.
The Spartans arrived at Carrara Stadium in sixth position in the NBL1 North as they took on a Gold Coast team coming off playing in the past two Grand Finals, and trying to break back into the top six on the back of beating the Cairns Marlins.
The two teams put on quite the remarkable spectacle over the next 45 minutes and by quarter-time they couldn’t be separated already with scores level at 30-30.
It was the Spartans leading narrowly by three points at half-time before another 31 points to 25 in the third quarter to see Southern Districts out to a nine-point lead at three quarter-time.
Gold Coast hit back in the fourth quarter and ultimately it was a massive pull up three-pointer from way downtown from reigning MVP Jason Cadee that sent the game into overtime with scores level at 101-101 at the end of the first 40 minutes.
The overtime period was all about Kendle and he came out hitting the first six points for Southern Districts before knocking down the last score of the game with a three-pointer to give the Spartans the one-point lead, which they would end up winning by.
The win keeps the Spartans inside the top six with a 7-6 record despite the absence of Mitch Norton and Tyrell Harrison.

Sunshine Coast Phoenix (95) defeated Ipswich Force (90)
The defending champion Ipswich Force couldn’t quite build on the momentum from the previous night with the Sunshine Coast Phoenix scoring the 95-90 home victory.
Ipswich came into the weekend in second last place and the playoffs were slipping out of reach, but the return of Deng Deng sparked them into life and to an impressive Friday night win at home to the Northside Wizards.
They then arrived at Maroochydore Stadium looking to keep the momentum going against a Phoenix team also trying to break into the top six but having lost their past three matches.
On the back of the momentum from the previous night, Ipswich went on a 12-0 run in the first quarter to turn an early five-point deficit into a seven-point lead, but Sunshine Coast worked on top by quarter-time to lead 26-24.
While the Force never gave up the fight, the Phoenix gradually built on that lead the rest of the evening with it growing to as much as seven points in the second quarter, nine in the third and 10 in the fourth.

Townsville were back home at StarFM Stadium on the back of their third win of the season last Friday against the Gold Coast Rollers ahead of hosting a Pirates team fresh off a loss on Friday to the Cairns Marlins.
It would end up being a tight contest all evening with no more than seven points separating the two teams at any point.
Townsville managed to hold a one-point lead at the end of the first quarter before scores were tied at 48-48 by half-time.
The biggest break of the game came midway through the fourth quarter with the Pirates out to a seven-point lead on the back of three-point bombs from Tobias Rotegaard and Brendan Teys.
That put the pressure back on Townsville to respond and it was Ethan Betts who led his team back starting with a three-pointer to cut the deficit to four.
Even though Kai Woodfall answered with another triple for South West Metro, Townsville were up for the fight with Richard Peachey scoring his team's next five points, and then Michael Cedar knocked down a three ball to tie scores up.
Then in the final minute, Matthew Rees forced the turnover on Ben Volkman that led to the go-ahead bucket in transition to Betts.
Teys ended up making 1/2 at the foul line for the Pirates to keep the Heat up by one before Betts missed two free throws to keep the door ajar for the visitors.
Rotegaard did get off a shot at the game winner at the buzzer, but it wouldn’t fall and Townsville won by a point to make it consecutive victories and to improve to 4-9 on the season.
