Saints Claim Road Victory Over Giants, Set Sights on Sharks

The Mills Albert Wellington Saints continued their strong start to the season with a hard-fought 94-86 win over the NBS Nelson Giants at the Trafalgar Centre on Thursday night.

Veteran guard Shaun Bruce led the charge for the Saints, delivering a stellar performance with 23 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists. His backcourt partner, Izayah Le’afa, was just as instrumental, contributing 22 points, 7 assists, and 2 steals in a high-paced contest.

The game remained tight throughout, with the Giants refusing to back down on their home court. However, the Saints’ composure in the final minutes proved to be the difference, as they executed key plays down the stretch to seal the win.

With the victory, Wellington improves its record and now turns its focus to Wednesday night’s home game at TSB Arena, where they will take on the Southland Sharks. The matchup marks the Saints’ first game back in front of their home fans since the season opener, and they will be eager to build on their momentum.
