The Franklin Bulls have bounced back to winning ways with a thrilling 90-85 win over the Auckland Tuatara at Franklin Pool & Leisure Centre on Sunday night.

Without star centre Tyrell Harrison and down by 15 points at halftime, the Bulls rallied in the second half to steal a memorable win over their neighbours to the north.

Dan Fotu (11 points, 12 rebounds), Isaac Davidson (18 points, 11 rebounds) and Dom Kelman-Poto (12 points, 13 rebounds) all had double doubles while Rickey McGill poured in 16 points to help the Bulls improve to 3-2 on the season.

Te Tuhi Lewis scored 13 valuable points off the bench as the Bulls scored their first ever win over the Tuatara.

They are back home against the Otago Nuggets next Saturday night.
