NBL: Josh Adams delights in JackJumpers NBL Blitz debut

Adams featured in the JackJumpers' opening NBL Blitz game against the Brisbane Bullets and showcased his wares with 18 points including one audacious dunk.

"I felt pretty good out there with managed minutes, [the dunk] was kind of a spur of the moment thing, that's what I am known for so it felt good to be able to get out there and do that," he said.

"The play just happened pretty quick, their defence broke down a little bit and that created the opportunity for me."

Jackumpers coach Scott Roth was full of praise for his import guard's performance in the 89-79 loss.

"He's obviously a highlight reel and very explosive and he'll be fun to watch," he said.

Despite Adams' efforts, Roth had praise for two of his JackJumpers' teammates.

"I thought Sam [McDaniel] [was good] and MiKyle [McIntosh] was very good defensively for us and was very active on the ball ... he was very good I thought."
