We are back on Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle for the best and most detailed look you will get at the finish to the #NBL21 regular season over the coming days.

There might be no Scoring Machine Shawn Redhage joining Chris Pike on this week's show, but we're sure that you will accept his replacement in six-time NBL champions and six-time NBL Best Defensive Player Damian Martin.

There is plenty of ground for us to cover and we get underway with Damian Martin providing his first reaction to the news that Bryce Cotton has ruled himself out of being any chance of a miracle return for the Perth Wildcats.

We then get Damian Martin's insight into the Friday night clash between the Perth Wildcats and Melbourne United which will go a long way to deciding top spot on the NBL ladder.

We then take a look at the massive Saturday double-header with the New Zealand Breakers hosting the South East Melbourne Phoenix before the Sydney Kings and Brisbane Bullets battle. These two games could decide the fourth team to reach the finals and Damo let's you know who he expects to win and to make it.

We then take a look at Melbourne playing the Adelaide 36ers on Sunday with Damo giving his thoughts on the season of the Sixers, and why he is excited for the future of Josh Giddey.

The last game for us to look at is then on Tuesday between the Bullets and Phoenix.

The legend himself Damian Martin breaks down how he sees the final few games of the season playing out, and who he expects to play finals.

We then discuss the three outgoing coaches Adam Forde, Andrej Lemanis and Mike Kelly, and why the firing of Kelly from the Taipans wasn't necessarily what surprised Damian Martin the most.

We then look ahead to the announcement of the winner of #TheDamo Award next week thanks to Boomering before the TABtouch Preview wraps up another big episode of Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle.
