    The Breakers have missed the chance to be further buoyed heading home

    The Breakers have missed the chance to be further buoyed heading home


    Ahead of flying to New Zealand this morning for the first time since relocating across the Tasman, they've been edged 73-71 by the Illawarra Hawks in their Australian basketball league game.

    The Perth Wildcats have beaten the Brisbane Bullets 102-90.
