The South East Melbourne Phoenix will again rely on the club's next-man-up mentality when they take on the JackJumpers on New Year's Day.
Ryan Broekhoff and Gary Browne will again miss as they recover from the injuries they sustained in the double-overtime win over the Kings.
In better news, centre Alan Williams, who missed the loss to the 36ers, returns from an ankle injury.
"We've had some bad luck with injuries and illness the last few weeks, but as a club, we believe in our roster and trust the team we put on the floor will play as hard as they have all season," South East Melbourne Phoenix CEO Tommy Greer said. "The team has had a strong 'next man up mentality' the last few games, and it is serving us well."
(Alan Williams returns for the Phoenix after missing the last game with an ankle injury.)
From Kyle Adam to Owen Foxwell and Tohi Smith-Milner, a different player has stepped up in each of the last three games to add to the superb performances MVP candidate Mitch Creek is producing.
"This is not ideal mid-season, but every cub deals with injuries and niggles at this time of the year. Everyone on the roster is ready for their moment."
In their last game in Adelaide, the Phoenix had to petition the NBL to play with ten players.
