    The Breakers have been posterised on and off court after their return to basketball's ANBL

    The Breakers have been posterised on and off court after their return to basketball's ANBL


    The club have been criticised for charging their members - and the general public - for what's dubbed as an exclusive meet and greet with former NBA player Tacko Fall.

    The 2.29 metre centre has joined the team in New Zealand to rehabilitate an injury that prevented him playing on their three-game tour of the United States.

    Fall isn't on the Breakers roster.

    Meanwhile, the side have lost 84-73 loss to the Bullets in Brisbane.
