    Breakers stars need to stay out of foul trouble for any chance against Oklahoma City Thunder today

    The Breakers big men know they have to stay out of foul trouble if they're to have any chance of competing against the Oklahoma City Thunder today


    Centres Brandon Ashley, Rob Loe and Ater Majok had 13 fouls between them against Memphis.

    It forced the coach Dan Shamir to make early rotations.

    Ashley says they'll have to adjust with how the refs are calling the game.



    The match is about to get underway.
