The SA Shotclock is back for another week including the latest on SA’s local basketball leagues and the NBL1 Central 2025 season

TP is joined by special comments for The Collective WNBL and Eastern Mavericks Guard Bella Schaftenaar for the biggest show of the season – Throwdowns, Showdowns and the Lightning Savings

TP and Bella bring you all the week’s action of the Trans-Tasman Throwdown between Australia and New Zealand – the build-up, the key moments, the pressers and much more especially for Adelaide’s biggest international basketball fixture in over 20 years  

After the throwdown are the showdowns and the biggest one in NBL1 Central this weekend is the Kayo Freebies Game of the Week in both the Womens and Mens between the South Adelaide Panthers and the Forestville Eagles – we speak to two men at the epicentre of the Grand Final 2024 rematch with a little bit more in it – Jarryd Hoppo and Greg Mays   

Then we thought it couldn’t get any bigger as TP goes “Under the Microscope” on WNBL 2.0 and particularly the last few months of the Adelaide Lightning situation – what’s been reported, what’s been done and how the Adelaide Lightning has been saved and even dives into the possibilities of what could eventuate moving forward. Plus all the reviews and previews of Round 6 and 7 of the NBL1 Central… The biggest show of the year by far – must not be missed…
