Our NBL Round 3 tips have the Phoenix ending their week on a high, and that shouldn’t be too difficult against the struggling Hawks.

We’re trying to make a case for the Hawks to play well, but after the first two weeks, we haven’t seen anything from them to recommend backing them this week. Improvement is expected, but it shouldn’t be enough to beat teams like the Phoenix.

Look for Nathan Sobey to have a field day on offence, and he could end the game with 30+ points for the Phoenix.
