    The Breakers' winning streak has ended at five

    The Breakers' winning streak has ended at five


    The Auckland club scored just one point in the final four minutes and 50 seconds and watched on as the Cairns Taipans took the lead to eventually win 85-79.

    Coach Dan Shamir says it was great game, and they may have relied too heavily on Scotty Hopson.



    The Breakers next play Brisbane on Sunday.
