    No qualms from Breakers coach Petteri Koponen over an extra game added to their upcoming NBA basketball tour of the United States


    The Kiwi club will take a break from NBL action after Sunday's home game... to take on the Jazz, Thunder and the 76ers, with the latter match-up only confirmed this week.

    Koponen says while the timing isn't ideal, he's taking an optimistic view of the October slate.
