Numerous Illawarra Hawks continued their strong NBL1 form over the weekend, thanks to impressive performances for their respective sides.
In NBL1 South, big man Harry Froling and his Hobart Chargers had a road trip doubleheader in Melbourne.
First up was a round four fixture with Diamond Valley at Community Bank Stadium.
Despite only scoring four points, Froling contributed 10 rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one block in the Chargers' 86-71 win.
Less than 24 hours later, Froling dominated to the tune of 24 points, 19 boards and four dimes, as Chargers downed the Melbourne Tigers 97-84 at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre - as Hobart improved to 3-2 on the season.

Next up for Froling's side is a Friday showdown with Ringwood at Kingborough Sports Centre from 8pm.
Moving to Queensland and Hawks duo Isaac White, and Alex Mudronja took the court over the weekend.
On Saturday, White (24 points, four rebounds, three assists and three steals) led Ipswich to a 109-86 win against North Gold Coast at Runaway Bay Stadium - marking their first victory of 2022.
In the defeat, Mudronja tallied 19 points, six boards and six dimes for the Seahawks.
White's Force made it 2/2 on Sunday, as they ground out a tough 83-74 victory over the Red City Roar at JBS Stadium.
In the victory, White exploded for 34 points, six rebounds, four assists and three steals - as his Force moved to 2-4 this season.

The Force will put their two-game win streak on the line in round four when they travel to Carrara Stadium to battle the Gold Coast Rollers on Friday.
While next up for Mudronja and his Seahawks face the Northside Wizards at South Pine Sports Complex from 7pm Saturday.
Unfortunately, Lachlan Dent and his Brisbane Capitals weren't able to take to the court on Saturday against Southern Districts at the Rowland Cowan Stadium, as the hardwood was deemed too slippery and the game was postponed.
Dent's side is on the road again in round four, travelling to Bravus Arena to face Rockhampton.
