    An increasing level of satisfaction for Breakers coach Petteri Koponen after they racked up a third straight win in basketball's NBL


    The New Zealand club are up to sixth after they led the whole way in a 13-point victory over Tasmania in Auckland.

    Koponen says one aspect of the performance stood out above the rest.



    Izaiah Brockington led the way with 22 points, while Parker Jackson-Cartwright added 16 points and 12 assists.
