The Phoenix took the court 10 days after beating the Adelaide 36ers in their open roof game to face the Hawks at the top of the rankings.

The Wollongong game kicks off the Phoenix’s road trip games, three in six days through 2025.

Josh King’s team will look to end the Hawks’ five-game winning streak, which began after a three-point loss to the Phoenix a month ago.

In a sell-out game in Wollongong, the Phoenix must advance into enemy territory to eliminate the flying Hawks.
