    The Festive Season hasn't been so merry for the Breakers

    The Festive Season hasn't been so merry for the Breakers


    After travelling at Christmas for a Boxing Day win in Tasmania, the Auckland-based side is playing at home for the first time in a month this afternoon.

    And while the fans may have been revelling in the summer break, shooting guard Reuben Te Rangi says they've been focusing on finishing the season on a high.



    The Breakers confront the Perth Wildcats at Spark Arena from 4.30pm.
