New Zealand Breakers have punched their ticket to the NBL play-offs for the first time since 2017-2018 and are in the hunt for an automatic semi-final berth with just two games remaining following a second-half blitz against Melbourne United.
The Breakers trailed for the majority of Saturday's contest in Auckland but frequently found their way to the free-throw line in the back end of the match and ultimately snapped United's five-game winning streak with an 80-74 victory.
