Vale Darryl ‘The Iceman’ Pearce.

The NBL is saddened by the loss of one of the League’s great players, Darryl Pearce, who played 374 games with the Adelaide 36ers and North Melbourne Giants. A two-time championship winner in 1986 and 1994, Pearce was one of the great scorers and shooters that the NBL has seen, sitting 13th all-time in three-point makes. A member of the Adelaide 36ers Hall of Fame, with his #4 jersey retired by the Club, he was also inducted into the Australian Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002.

Our thoughts are with his family and those who were close to him at this time.
