MANILA, Philippines — Kai Sotto played quality minutes in the Adelaide 36ers’ 94-89 loss to the Perth Wildcats at the Adelaide Recreation Center on Saturday (Manila time).
Sotto made all three of his attempts from the field to finish with eight points, along with three rebounds and an assist in 13 minutes of play.
Robert Franks overcame the 36ers, who lost for the third time in four games, with 24 points and nine rebounds.
Adelaide fell short in a 96-80 win over the Illawarra Hawks on Thursday, where the 7-foot-3 tall Sotto scored two points, five rebounds and two blocks in 15 minutes.
A win over the Wildcats would push the 36ers into fifth place on the leaderboard but instead, they remain at the bottom of the table with a 3-4 card.
Brady Manek assisted Perth with 25 points while Corey Webster added 18 points.
