Breakers finalise roster

agree LC but I'm hoping they won't rely on one player for the bulk of their scoring this season preferring that guys like Vukona/Abercrombie get more looks and the ball going into Wilkinson inside a bit more.
Leon Henry is a swing man much like Abercrombie minus the leaping ability but he can rebound, defend and shoot the 3ball.

Still a very good team.

I'm not sure how much of the load that Bruton can shoulder with Penney's departure.

Lindsay seems to step up in a black jersey but I agree that he deserves an NBL contract and it isn't like he'd cost a packet.
I'm looking forward to seeing Vukona and Abercrombie get more looks this season and BJ Anthony and Webster getting more court time. Apparently BJ played well in China recently for the Tall Blacks so I hope he can carry that confidence through to the Breakers. Leon Henry isn't a bad signing and he has earned it by training hard with the team all of last season after his temp contract to cover Penney's stint in the NBA along with a great season with Wellington in the NZNBL.

Hope that Lindsay Tait can also be signed with an NBL club. He is an asset for Tall Blacks development too.

Breakers were lucky to have a player of his caliber on their roster fullstop and he got us a championship.
Still a very solid roster with tons of chemistry and talent across the court.
I expect CJ Bruton will step up and take up even more of a leadership role within the team with Henare and Penney gone along with Mika Vukona although Boucher has tons of experience and respect amongst the roster.

Can anyone give me an update on Carla Boyd and when she will be back on the court.
