    The Tall Ferns have fallen short in their quest to hoist basketball's Cup in China


    New Zealand have been knocked out in the quarter-finals 77-62 by Japan.

    The Tall Ferns made a promising start and led 41-39 at half-time, before an eight point third quarter stunted all momentum.

    New Zealand will now play for fifth and sixth tonight.
