Melbourne United got the better of South East Melbourne Phoenix in the NBL Melbourne derby on October 10, recovering from a 15-point deficit to take the points. The game became a dramatic Throwdown thriller that kept fans on edge.

Oduro put the game away with a double-double, coming up clutch when it mattered most. It was the kind of hard-fought victory that makes derby nights special.

In other NBL action on the same night, the Perth Wildcats hosted the New Zealand Breakers in a separate fixture.
