The first seven games of the Wildcats' campaign has resulted in six wins.

Their average score of more than 95 points per game is impressive, but they are being helped along by opposition teams fouling them way more than they are being fouled.

And that is resulting in the Wildcats having significantly more free-throws than their opposition.

In those seven games, Perth have given up 119 fouls (17 per game), but attracted 153 (21.9 per game).

The reward is that they have had 169 trips to the free-throw line, of which they have dropped 127, at 75 per cent.

Opposition teams have been to the line to shoot just 109 free throws and made 78, at 71 per cent.

Coaches visiting Perth aren't saying too much more in their post-match than commenting that they need to tighten up.

"They shot 23 free-throws to our eight. We didn't do a good job keeping them off the foul line," Brisbane's Andrej Lemanis said after the Bullets lost 90-87 in Perth on Friday night.

"We shot three free-throws. That blows my mind. If any team shoots 20 free throws and the other shoots three, there is going to be a big difference," said New Zealand's Kevin Braswell in a loss a week earlier.

But Perth coach Trevor Gleeson puts the lopsided count down to the multiple scoring options his team now boasts.

Bryce Cotton was fouled six times against the Bullets on Friday night on his way to a match-winning 37 points. On average, he is fouled 5.7 times per game.

Angus Brandt (4.3 per game before Friday night where he was subbed out after five minutes) and Nick Kay (3.2 per game) also attract regular contact.

"It's a little different to teams we've had in the past. We have guys who can stretch the floor," Gleeson said.

"We have Bryce on one side, Clint (Steindl) on the other side, Jesse (Wagstaff), Rhys (Vague); they are all capable three-point shooters.

"It gives room for the guards to get to the hole.

"Bryce elevates so high, they try to close out. I think he has been fouled on the three-point line the last three or four games.

"It's good for us to be able to put some heat on the rim; we haven't been able to do that the last couple of years."

Hold off on any calls of the RAC Arena crowd impacting on the referees' calls though.

Perth have been fouled on average 26.5 times in each of their two away games and attracted an average of 24 fouls per game; more than in Perth.

They have made 42 of 50 free-throws while on the road. Although their hosts have made 40 of their 55 charity attempts when not on the western side of the Nullarbor.
