Sport by Matt Logue 14th Jun 2021 1:48 PM | Updated: 2:32 PM
South East Melbourne star Mitch Creek possesses the potent game to power the Phoenix past Melbourne United and into the NBL grand final series.
That is the opinion of Phoenix coach Simon Mitchell, who has urged Creek to maintain his aggressive approach in Tuesday’s deciding semi-final against United.
The Boomers forward will head into Game 3 full of confidence after producing a dominant effort in a 90-79 Game 2 win on Sunday to level the series.
Creek finished with a game-high 26 points, including a brilliant 9-0 personal run when the scores were locked at 77 during the fourth quarter.
