Will McDowell-White, of the New Zealand Breakers, tries to get past Mitch McCarron, of the Adelaide 36ers, during a round five ANBL match at Spark Arena, in Auckland last night.
The Breakers went down 85-97, as a poor fourth quarter again cost the home side dearly.
The Breakers have now lost five games in a row since their opening win against the Cairns Taipans, although two of those losses were against NBA teams.
