Cedric Jackson was probably the star of the show with 10 points, 12 assists and five rebounds.
Gary Wilkinson collected a game-high 20 points and seven rebounds; Mika Vukono sunk 12 points and got seven rebounds, Alex Pledger added 12 points while Thomas Abercrombie scored 13 points.
The Breakers had a 20 point lead by the time three quarter time was over .
The Breakers now have a week off before they host the Sydney Kings.
