Tall Blacks drop tour opener
Shooting guard Kirk Penney scored a game-high 23 points but could not prevent a fourth-quarter offensive drought that saw the Tall Blacks drop their tour opener at Saku Arena.
Full-back Brown, 26, was last capped in 2008 on the ill-fated tour to New Zealand, when his involvement with the national side ended ignominiously with a £1,000 fine for staying out all night and missing a physio session following the Test defeat in Auckland.
