Game day guide: Round 13 vs Tasmania JackJumpers

Fresh off their historic Christmas night win against Melbourne, the Sydney Kings will look to make it two straight wins at home when they take on Tasmania on Friday.

In a replay of last year's grand final, the JackJumpers got the better of Chase Buford's side earlier this month but the reigning champions are determined to not let that happen again on their home court - as they edge towards cementing a top-two spot.

The NBL fixture, at 7.15pm, will be game two of the Hoops Capital double-header on Friday, with the Flames and Capitals game starting all the fun from 5pm.

Hoops Capital $10K shootout: You will have the chance to win $10,000 at our final three Kings and Flames double-headers. Make sure you get there early to support the Flames for your chance to be selected to take a half-court shot during the Kings game to win.  Terms and Conditions.
