    The Breakers will play for Tom Abercrombie tonight in their final push for the NBL playoffs

    The Breakers will play for Tom Abercrombie tonight in their final push for the NBL playoffs


    Tonight's game against the 36ers will only determine the New Zealand side's position inside the top six - with Adelaide needing an all-but-impossible 102-point win to deny the Breakers entirely.

    Point-guard Parker Jackson-Cartwright says they'll use Abercrombie's pending retirement as motivation.



    Play is just underway.
