PASAY CITY (Philippines) - The Boomers continue to set new individual and team milestones in these Asian Qualifiers Window 4.
After Elijah Pepper's single-game scoring record, and Australia's top five marks in points, steals and efficiency against Syria on August 28, it was time for Luke Travers to join the party.
The ex-Cleveland Cavalier got his passing game going in the big win over the Falcons, dishing out 10 assists.
The 200 cm / 6'6" forward, currently with Melbourne United, also tallied 7 points and pulled down 6 rebounds, besides a steal.
Overall, it was a typically balanced effort by the green and gold, with all 12 Aussies getting on the scorecard, led by Anthony Dell'Orso, who debuted in this window.
Australia's team highs
Boomers' 126 points against Jordan elevated them back in the top three for most points scored in a single game, after being temporarily pushed down by New Zealand, who too put up 126 against Syria earlier today.
Australia's offensive effort also bettered their own top ten mark set earlier this week, when they posted 123 points, again at Syria's expense.
