Former Falkirk Fury starts in action as Bunyan records personal best and Beattie returns
Bunyan, now in his 10th season with the Rocks, hit five threes with four in a row at the start of the third quarter to propel the Rocks from 12 down at the half to an eventual ten point win.
Bunyan also went nine from nine from the free throw line to now lead the BBL in free throw percent with a league high 94.1 percent stat.

In a high scoring first half, the Rocks led 50-48 and Bunyan continued his three point shooting form, hitting two from four from behind the arc and added a two point play for eight personal at the half.
However the Scorchers tightened their defence in the third period and led by five going into the final stanza.
With Rocks starters Murray, Delph, Keeling , Bunyan and Julies Van Sauers, having played literally the whole of the Giants game and most of the first three periods, the fourth quarter was perhaps one too many as the Surrey side took over the game, running out 99-83 winners.
