    The Breakers' inability to lean on Tacko Fall has again contributed to a 108-100 defeat by the table-topping Illawarra Hawks in basketball's NBL

    The Breakers' inability to lean on Tacko Fall has again contributed to a 108-100 defeat by the table-topping Illawarra Hawks in basketball's NBL


    The 7-foot-6 centre finished with just 5 points and 5 rebounds in 14 minutes of action.

    Coach Petteri Koponen says the Hawks were able to stifle Fall, and is urging his players to take advantage of the attention drawn by the former NBA player moving forward.



    The Breakers remain second-to-last on the table.
