    A poor second quarter has left the Breakers play-off hopes in disarray

    A poor second quarter has left the Breakers play-off hopes in disarray


    The Australian basketball league club has lost 95-85 to the Brisbane Bullets in Auckland.

    The Breakers gave up 34 points in the second quarter, leading to a 10-point deficit from which they never recovered.

    Guard Sek Henry says there were a number of frustrating calls from the referee, but ultimately Brisbane were too good.



    The Breakers are now eighth on the competition ladder with seven games remaining.

    The South East Melbourne Phoenix have beaten the Illawarra Hawks 90-82.
