The Hawks endured two difficult road losses to Cairns and Melbourne United, playing without star guards Rhys Martin and Kevin Lisch.
But, seven months after the club went into voluntary administration, they have shown enough potential to indicate they can be a play-offs contender.
Follow Mercury sports writers Mitch Cohen and Mitch Jennings who are courtside as the Hawks attempt to kick-start their season against the Breakers.
Tip-off at 7.30pm.
