It was not a difficult decision for Sydney Kings head coach Andrew Gaze when he was asked to join the Indiana Pacers as an assistant coach for the 2017 NBA Summer League.

"(Pacers Director of Scouting Ryan Carr) asked if I'd be interested, and I said, 'why wouldn't I be?!'" recounted Gaze. "This is an absolute privilege, it's incredible."

The Melbourne-native played professionally for his hometown team, the Melbourne Tigers, for 21 seasons and won two NBL championships while also earning himself seven MVP nods. He was inducted into the FIBA Hall of Fame in 2013 and is currently the head coach of the Sydney Kings.
