Kings to play Bullets during inaugural Summer Shootout
The Sydney Kings will play the Brisbane Bullets during the first-ever NBL 'Summer Shootout', to take place during January.
The Hoops Capital side decided between its two away matches in January - South East Melbourne and Brisbane - by King #237 Kouat Noi flipping a coin.
The Summer Shootout is an innovative new concept where each club has nominated an away game in January, where it believes it will score the most points.
