By Kris ShannonIt's a bitter blow that after his best game, and with the roster rounding into top form, the Breakers may now need to replace Ben Woodside. The Breakers (3-3) can cope against the Bullets (3-3) with Corey Webster running the point and Izzy Tueta - himself an injury replacement for Shea Ili - increasing his minutes off the bench. The reason the Breakers were in a sombre mood rather than celebration mode after beating Melbourne is the possible long-term ramifications. The worst has yet to be confirmed but it's feared Woodside could miss months, potentially curtailing his Breakers career when it's barely begun. The loss of Woodside cast a pall over what was the Breakers' second-straight impressive victory.
