Three pre-season fixtures confirmed

The Phoenix will tip off their NBL27 pre-season campaign against NCAA Division I program Saint Mary's College, before taking on cross-town rivals Melbourne United and the Cairns Taipans in the lead-up to the new season.

Saint Mary's boasts a rich connection to Australian basketball, with Phoenix pair Jordi Hunter and Tanner Krebs among its alumni. They join an illustrious list of former Gaels including Patty Mills, Matthew Dellavedova, Jock Landale and many more who have gone on to enjoy successful professional careers.

The Phoenix will then renew their rivalry with Melbourne United, following last year's unforgettable double-overtime pre-season thriller at the State Basketball Centre, before wrapping up preparations for NBL27 against the Cairns Taipans.

Tickets go on sale Friday, July 10 via AXS, with further information to be announced soon. To learn more on the new ticketing partnership, CLICK HERE.
