The first half was a closely contested affair, with Cairns matching Perth's intensity. However, after the main break, the Wildcats elevated their defensive pressure and found a more fluid offensive rhythm, going on a decisive run to create separation. Key contributions from Perth's star players down the stretch sealed the 14-point win.
