Mark Worthington explains to Courtney Ward on NBL Now, presented by CODE Sports, why the Wildcats don’t know how to start games and don’t have the athletes to win a title. ]

He also says why Will Weaver is hands down Coach of the Year, and which clubs could use Raul Neto.

Worthington also labels Jonah Bolden the best off-season signing and this Cairns roster the most talented Taipans team ever.
