The Breakers are hopeful they'll be able to welcome back a key member of their rotation from injury in the coming days

The Breakers are hopeful they'll be able to welcome back a key member of their rotation from injury in the coming days

8 December 2024

Forward Jonah Bolden has been out for the past four weeks with a calf problem, while a knee injury to Dane Pineau has left a shortage in the front court.

The team signed Tai Wynyard as an injury replacement player this week.

Coach Petteri Koponen has his fingers crossed that Bolden will be back sooner rather than later.

The Breakers have dropped to fifth on the ladder after a 98-83 loss to the Sydney Kings in Wellington - their fourth consecutive defeat.
