NBL IS<br />
BACK<br />
After celebrating last season’s success<br />
and unveiling the historic <strong>2018</strong> NBL<br />
Championship banner, it will be back to<br />
business for Melbourne United in the<br />
<strong>2018</strong>/<strong>19</strong> home opener.<br />
Their opponent; the New Zealand Breakers<br />
enter the season with some fresh faces and<br />
hopes of challenging for the title. Two of those<br />
new faces are players who helped United to<br />
the <strong>2018</strong> NBL Championship; Tai Wesley and<br />
Majok Majok.<br />
Both will play vital roles for the Breakers and<br />
as all United fans would know, Wesley is<br />
capable of turning a game on its head with<br />
his tough play and willingness to do whatever<br />
is needed.<br />
He is a tough cover for opposing bigs due to<br />
his classy footwork in the paint, and he can<br />
overpower guards with his brute strength.<br />
DJ Kennedy, Craig Moller, Dan Trist and Dave<br />
Barlow will be crucial in slowing down Wesley.<br />
New Zealand’s imports; Shawn Long,<br />
Patrick Richard and Armani Moore will bring<br />
excitement and tough match-ups.
