Regular Season Round 9: Taipans - Breakers 78-89

Date: December 16, 2018
The game in Cairns was also worth to mention about. Seventh ranked New Zealand Breakers (5-8) played at the court of 8th ranked Cairns Taipans (1-11). New Zealand Breakers defeated Cairns Taipans 89-78. New Zealand Breakers brought some defensive toughness making 11 blocks. American forward Shawn Long (208-93, college: La-Lafayette, agency: Pensack Sports) nailed a double-double by scoring 16 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks for the winning side and guard Jarrad Weeks (185-89) accounted for 17 points and 4 assists. American guard Melo Trimble (190-95, college: Maryland) came up with 23 points and 6 assists and the former international power forward Nathan Jawai (209-86, college: Midland CC) added 11 points and 9 rebounds respectively for Cairns Taipans in the defeat. Five New Zealand Breakers and four Cairns Taipans players scored in double figures. New Zealand Breakers moved-up to sixth place. Cairns Taipans lost eleventh consecutive game. They stay at the bottom position with 11 games lost. New Zealand Breakers' next round opponent will be higher ranked Illawarra Hawks (#5) in Gwynneville and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Cairns Taipans will play on the road against Adelaide 36ers in Findon and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
