    A dent in the Breakers' NBL play-off hopes

    A dent in the Breakers' NBL play-off hopes


    They've suffered a 94-81 defeat by league leaders Melbourne United on the road, but remain in the competition's top-6 after the Hawks beat the Kings - that pushes the latter back to seventh.

    The Breakers will need to win their final two regular season games against Brisbane and Adelaide and hope other results go their way to book a place in the finals.
