NBL Overtime (October 12, 2026)

Felix Von Hofe, Derek Rucker and Damon Lowery are back to break down the biggest storylines in the NBL this week.

The Kendric Davis v Bryce Cotton rivalry is officially on 🍿 We go through the pre-game talk, the post-match reactions and that late-night post, then look back at their epic battles in last season’s Finals. Plus: are Tasmania or Perth the team to beat right now? Can anyone stop Illawarra’s slide at 1-6? And what’s next for New Zealand after a night to forget in Perth?

We also cover South East Melbourne’s search for an identity, the Velicka injury and what it means for Brisbane, crowd behaviour, Cairns’ playoff hopes, and preview the Ignite Cup opener between the Sydney Kings and New Zealand Breakers.
