Bryce Cotton scored 29 points in 37:03 (9/19 FG, 4/9 3P, 7/7 FT) in Adelaide's 97-95 win at Melbourne. That is above Finding 10's 25+ threshold and well above his 21.21 ppg average against Melbourne in 39 prior games, so it CONTRADICTS the benchmark (a regular-level scoring night). Context: his 36 high against Melbourne stands.
