Match Info

The Perth Wildcats held off a determined Illawarra Hawks team to win 92-87 in a tense National Basketball League (NBL) encounter on January 16, 2026. In front of their home crowd at RAC Arena for a 6:30 PM tip-off, the Wildcats used a strong third-quarter surge to build a lead and then withstood a late Hawks rally to secure a vital five-point victory. The game was a classic NBL battle, with physical defense and runs from both sides. Perth's star players made crucial baskets down the stretch, and key defensive rebounds in the final minute sealed the win. The result strengthens the Wildcats' position in the upper echelon of the NBL standings as they push for a top playoff seed. For the Illawarra Hawks, the narrow loss on the road shows their competitiveness but also the difficulty of winning in Perth.
