    Breakers coach Dan Shamir's pleased to have the majority of his roster back, but he's nervous at how they'll fare when they take the court tonight

    Breakers coach Dan Shamir's pleased to have the majority of his roster back, but he's nervous at how they'll fare when they take the court tonight


    The Kiwi ANBL franchise is returning from another spate of Covid-19 cases, with eight players testing postive following their win over the Sydney Kings on January 16th.

    Shamir says they've been able to resume trainings, but two players remain in isolation.

    He adds other teams have struggled when playing their first game after a long break.



    The Breakers take on the Tasmanian Jack Jumpers at 7.30pm.
