Kings’ big inclusions for Friday blockbuster

Friday, December 1, 2023

An injury update ahead of the Perth v Sydney clash.

The Sydney Kings will be strengthened by the return of Jaylin Galloway and Jordan Hunter for Friday night’s blockbuster meeting with the Perth Wildcats.

Galloway has established himself as one of the NBL’s top young prospects and a strong presence on the defensive end. He hasn’t played since October 22 after suffering a shoulder injury and is averaging 11.8 points per game.

Hunter is a linchpin on both ends for Sydney and missed its last clash against Melbourne United due to an ankle issue.

Kings sparkplug Kouat Noi won’t make the trip west due to knee soreness and is replaced by Isaac Gattorna.

An ankle injury will keep Perth veteran Corey Webster sidelined. Michael Harris will take Webster’s place in the 11, while fellow Development Player Jack Andrew will suit up in the 13.

The Wildcats and Kings clash at 9:30pm AEDT on Friday night live on ESPN via Kayo Sports.
