The New Zealanders have two wins from two games to begin their campaign following their opening round win over Perth.

They've now beaten both last year's grand finalists in consecutive weeks to emerge as early title contenders.

Guard Corey Webster top scored for the hosts with 23 points, as swingman Tom Abercrombie marked his return from injury with a win.

Star import Cedric Jackson contributed 15 points.

The Breakers will now travel to Melbourne in preparation for their next game tomorrow (Sunday) night (NZ time).
