    The Breakers playing around the world are being impacted by covid-19

    The Breakers playing around the world are being impacted by covid-19


    Guard Corey Webster is in lockdown in his apartment in Rome, where he is meant to be playing in Italian basketball's Serie A.

    Centre Rob Loe played two games at the weekend for his side in Japan, but has cut ties with the team and is returning to New Zealand where 14-days of self-isolation await.

    Tall Black Isaac Fotu who plays in Italy has made it back into the country and has tweeted he'll keep himself entertained with TV, Playstation and plenty of coffee for a couple of weeks.
