Andrew Gaze

{{BLP unreferenced section|date=December 2024}}

Gaze was born in Melbourne, Victoria, the son of Lindsay and Margaret Gaze. He has an older sister, Janet. Gaze is also the nephew of former Australian Opals coach Tony Gaze and the cousin of Mark Gaze, who played 182 games in the NBL from 1983 to 1991 and represented Australia at the 1982 FIBA World Championship. He is also the second cousin of Canberra Capitals guard Kate Gaze, the daughter of Mark Gaze and former WNBL player Michelle O'Connor.

Gaze grew up at Albert Park Basketball Stadium, the home of the Victorian Basketball Association (VBA), with his father the general manager of the VBA at the time. After graduating from Albert Park College, Gaze pursued a professional basketball career and attended Victoria University in Melbourne.

In 1984, Gaze joined the Melbourne Tigers of the National Basketball League as an 18-year-old. His first season with the Tigers saw him win the NBL Rookie of the Year Award after averaging an impressive 29.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.6 steals in 24 games.[http://www.foxsportspulse.com/team_info.cgi?action=PSTATS&pID=190395826&client=0-189-12322-125703-369917 Player statistics for Andrew Gaze] By 1986, he made his first All-NBL First Team selection. He would go on to earn first-team honours in 15 straight seasons (1986–2000). In the 1987 NBL season, Gaze set an NBL record for points per game in a season when he averaged 44.1 points. This was despite the Tigers finishing the season in last place with a 3–23 record. During the season, Gaze had a 60-point game (against the Newcastle Falcons) and another five 50-point games.

Following the 1988 NBL season, Gaze, who was spotted by talent scouts while playing for Australia at the 1988 Olympics, moved to the United States after being recruited to play college basketball for Seton Hall University. During the 1988–89 season, Gaze played in 38 games for the Seton Hall Pirates, averaging 13.6 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game.[https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/andrew-gaze-1.html Andrew Gaze College Stats] Gaze started every game in The Hall's first-ever run to the NCAA Final Four, twice leading all Pirates scorers with 19 points in their Elite Eight win over UNLV and 20 points (highlighted by 4-from-9 shooting from 3) in the National Semifinal win against Duke. He completed his season at Seton Hall with an 80–79 overtime loss to the Michigan Wolverines in the NCAA Championship Game which was played in front of 39,187 fans at the Kingdome in Seattle, where he was heavily guarded and limited to only five field goal attempts, all from three-point range. After a year in New Jersey, Gaze returned to Australia and re-joined the Tigers for the 1989 NBL season.{{cite web |title=Gaze Is Gone But Questions Arise (Published 1989) |website=The New York Times |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220503204419/https://www.nytimes.com/1989/04/14/sports/gaze-is-gone-but-questions-arise.html |archive-date=2022-05-03 |url-status=live |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1989/04/14/sports/gaze-is-gone-but-questions-arise.html}} He missed the back-end of the 1990 NBL season due to a blood clot in his right shoulder.[https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1990-09-11-sp-434-story.html THE SIDELINES : Clot Hospitalizes Andrew Gaze]

Not known for being an outstanding athlete, Gaze's heavy scoring in the NBL was due to exceptional shooting, including from three-point range. A crowd favourite to the Tigers faithful, Gaze was a front runner in the league's resurgence during the 1990s, as he and American import Lanard Copeland combined to form a formidable backcourt and guided the Tigers to two championships in 1993 and 1997.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJ9Yd5upYr0 Andrew Gaze and Lanard Copeland] Playing under his father with the Tigers, Gaze assured the team were perpetual finalists.

In his later years, Gaze still managed to score at a high clip for the Tigers, averaging over 19 points per game in each of his last four NBL seasons. Following the 2004–05 NBL season, Gaze announced his retirement from the NBL. In 20 seasons with the Tigers, he played a total of 612 games and recorded 18,908 points at an average of 30.9 points per game.

In addition to playing in the NBL, Gaze spent multiple seasons overseas during the 1990s. In 1991, Gaze became the first Australian male to play professionally in Europe, with Italian 2nd League club Udine. In a six-month stint in Italy, he averaged over 30 points per game.[https://web.archive.org/web/20100818154617/http://www.musictheatreaustralia.com.au/component/entertainers/andrew_gaze/4779 Andrew Gaze – Music Theatre Australia] Despite his best efforts, the team finished the league last and was relegated to the 3rd division. In March 1994, Gaze returned to the United States and signed with the NBA's Washington Bullets. In seven games for the Bullets during the 1993–94 NBA season, he averaged 3.1 points per game. In early 1995, he moved to Greece and played half a season for Greek League club Apollon Patras.[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rec.sport.basketball.misc/-9Y_MX8v7ts Andrew Gaze playing in Greece] He had another short stint in the NBA during the lockout-shortened 1998–99 season, this time with the San Antonio Spurs. He received very little court time for a stacked Spurs team that included guards Mario Elie, Avery Johnson, Antonio Daniels and Steve Kerr. He appeared in just 19 games for the Spurs during the regular season and was inactive for the entire playoff run, which saw the Spurs win their first NBA championship.[https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/g/gazean01.html Andrew Gaze NBA Stats]

On the international stage, Gaze forged his reputation as one of Australia's finest products, appearing at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, as a 19-year-old. He led all scorers at the 1994 FIBA World Championship with 23.9 points per game, leading the Aussies to a fifth-place finish. In 2000, he became (jointly with American Teresa Edwards) the third basketball player to compete at five Olympics,[http://corporate.olympics.com.au/athlete/andrew-gaze Australian Olympic Committee: Andrew Gaze] after Puerto Rican Teófilo Cruz and Brazilian Oscar Schmidt. That year, Gaze was the flag bearer at the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympics, and he was also the Australian Team Captain. At the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, he led the Boomers to their then best Olympic performance, a fourth-placed finish, with a 5–3 record.[https://www.basketball-reference.com/olympics/athletes/andrew-gaze-1 Andrew Gaze Olympic Stats]

Gaze also competed in four FIBA World Cups with the Boomers, as he played in more than 280 matches for Australia. Gaze is the second all-time career points scorer, behind only Brazil's Oscar Schmidt, in Summer Olympic Games history, and he is third all-time in career points scored in FIBA World Cup history, after Schmidt and Argentina's Luis Scola.

In April 2016, Gaze was appointed head coach of the Sydney Kings in the NBL.[https://web.archive.org/web/20160414100325/http://www.sydneykings.com/uncategorised/sydney-kings-announce-andrew-gaze-as-new-head-coach/ SYDNEY KINGS ANNOUNCE ANDREW GAZE AS NEW HEAD COACH] He served as coach for three seasons before stepping down in 2019.[https://www.foxsports.com.au/basketball/nbl/sydney-kings-confirm-andrew-gaze-as-head-coach-for-201819-nbl-season/news-story/d2a6e98e24700c65b2d646505c63cadc Sydney Kings confirm Andrew Gaze as head coach for 2018-19 NBL season]{{Cite web |url=http://www.nbl.com.au/news/article/andrew-gaze-to-step-down-as-sydney-kings-coach-after-nbl19-finals |title=Andrew Gaze To Step Down As Sydney Kings Coach After NBL19 Finals |access-date=19 February 2019 |archive-date=24 March 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210324103040/https://nbl.com.au/news/article/andrew-gaze-to-step-down-as-sydney-kings-coach-after-nbl19-finals |url-status=dead }}
