Marc Hinton from stuff.co.nz has taken a look at the biggest talking points of R3 in the Sal's NBL.
There are three unbeaten sides and two still looking to get off the schneid as New Zealand’s National Basketball League heads into its third round starting Friday.
The 11-time champion Wellington Saints and newcomers the Auckland Huskies share the competition lead with 3-0 starts to their season, while title favourites the Hawke's Bay Hawks sit tucked in behind after a 2-0 opening to their campaign.
At the other end of the spectrum, it is already looking a long way back for competition tail-enders the 0-3 Taranaki Mountainairs and the 0-4 Manawatū Jets who both face the Otago Nuggets at home over the third round.
Here then are five big talking points heading into round 3 of the Sal's NBL - full article HERE.
