West Adelaide Bearcats superstar Mitch McCarron has been ruled out of the Coles Express NBL1 National Finals due to ankle soreness.

It is a major blow for the Bearcats, who will now lean heavily on the likes of Fraser Roxburgh, Nik DeSantis and Joel Spear to deliver a national title.

McCarron amassed 18 points, 11 assists and 6 rebounds in last weekend’s NBL1 Central Grand Final victory over the Forestville Eagles.

West Adelaide’s National Finals campaign begins tonight against the Knox Raiders at 4pm AWST live and free on Kayo Freebies.
