Point guard Owen Foxwell (thigh) will make his return to the South East Melbourne Phoenix lineup on Saturday night.

The South East Melbourne Phoenix have received a timely boost ahead of their John Cain Arena Open Air Game against the Brisbane Bullets.

Point guard Owen Foxwell, who is averaging 10.8 points, 4.2 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game this season, will make his long-awaited return from a thigh injury.

The Australian Boomer has been sidelined for the past five Phoenix games.

The Phoenix come into the fixture fresh off a one-point comeback win in Perth, while the Bullets lost to the Wildcats in their last match in Round 12.

Saturday's fixture tips off at 8pm AEDT, live on ESPN.
