Melbourne United got the better of South East Melbourne Phoenix in the NBL Melbourne derby on October 10, overcoming a 15-point deficit to claim the win. The game turned into a dramatic Throwdown thriller that kept fans on edge.

Oduro put the game away with a double-double, delivering a standout performance when it mattered most. It was the kind of second-half surge that defines derby football.

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