7 JUNE: KNIGHTS v OTAGO B


KNIGHTS TROUNCE OTAGO

by Piet Van Hasselt


The Canterbury Knights began their quest for the Conference basketball League (CBL) title with an impressive performance over their Southern rivals, Otago B, 78-55.

The match was the first for the Knights who are competing in the Lower South Conference of the CBL.

Right from the tip-off the collection of Canterbury’s promising players aged 19 to 24 dominated the Otago B side at both ends of the floor, jumping to a 24-12 lead at the end of the first quarter.

The Knights utilised full court pressure on many occasions to cause turnovers from the young Otago backcourt players, converting them into many easy points.

Canterbury controlled the action in the second quarter, taking a 45-28 lead into half-time. In the second half, the Otago side upped their intensity and was able to restrict the Knights to below 20 points in each of the quarters. However, the damage had been done and the Knights won the game by a hefty 23 point margin.

The Knights completely owned the boards, holding a 52-32 total rebound advantage and a 23-11 offensive rebounds lead.

Starring for the Knights was forward Ritchie Howell, making his CBL rookie appearance, who notched up 12 points from the high post position and connected on 6 of his 7 field goal attempts.

Shooting guard Myles Sutherland led the Knights in scoring with 14 points including two three pointers, and had 4 assists. Blase Dowall accumulated a hard-worked 9 rebounds which was the game high.

For the visitors, Matt Kendricks scored 17 points and Nuggets squad member Jamie Blake had 14.
