The Ignite Cup is back tonight with massive double header

Tasmania Vs Sydney

• Last game, Goorj reminded us why he’s the GOAT of coaches, could this be a chess match between two very strategic thinkers in Gorj and Roth?
• Sydney will come into this thinking that it's all starting to click … are KD and Delly starting to work it all out?
• What do Tasmania have to do defensively to slow them down?
• Sydney is not a big team on the inside, is this a change for Will Magnay to really dominate?

Perth Vs Brisbane

• What's going through Stu Lash’ head right now?
•  Harrison Vs JLA will be a fascinating watch
• Ben Henshall - only 7 minutes on the court last game and 0/3 - what does he need to do to get going?
• Perth win this and they go 4-1 - and all of sudden it's a pretty good start to NBL26
