Basketball: Giants too strong for Heat

The Nelson Giants outplayed the Harbour Heat in all areas in their NBL game in Auckland last night, scoring the largest winning margin this season.

Harbour's shooting percentage was only 41 per cent and lack of defence enabled the Giants easy shooting options as they ran away with the game 112-79.

Lance Baker top-scored for the Giants with 26 and Robert Tuilavae, in his first game for a fortnight, headed the Harbour scoresheet with 20 points.
