    Double disappointment for the New Zealand Breakers

    Double disappointment for the New Zealand Breakers


    They've gone down 116 to 87 in today's NBA pre-season game against the Jazz in Utah.

    And new centre Tacko Fall sat out the game with what the Breakers called "a minor injury"... the giant Senegalese centre, who's 2.29 metres tall - or seven feet six inches - is currently only on board for the three-game US tour.

    Fall will be reevaluated before the Philadelphia 76ers game on Tuesday.
