    Plenty to play for in the final regular season game of the NBL basketball competition between the Canterbury Rams and the Franklin Bulls in Christchurch

    Plenty to play for in the final regular season game of the NBL basketball competition between the Canterbury Rams and the Franklin Bulls in Christchurch


    The Bulls need to win to secure the sixth seed for the playoffs.

    A Franklin loss would mean the Tauranga Whai would sneak into sixth on points percentage.

    Tip off is at 6.30pm.

    Earlier, the Manawatu Jets' postseason hopes were dashed after a 101-95 loss to the bottom-of-the-table Otago Nuggets in Palmerston North.
