The Australian basketball community is mourning the death of two-time NBL champion Darryl Pearce. The three-point marksman known as ‘The Iceman’ won titles with both the Adelaide 36ers and North Melbourne Giants in a 374-game career. Pearce was inducted into the Australian Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002. “Darryl was one of our Invincibles and his No.4 jersey hangs proudly from the rafters,” Adelaide executive chairman Grant Kelley said.
“He is not just a legend of our great game but a sensational guy!” Joyce, also 64, said. “We have known each other since playing against each other as 11-year-olds in state national basketball and obviously as NBL players. “RIP mate prayers and condolences to the family.” The NBL paid tribute on social media. “The NBL is saddened by the loss of one of the league’s great players,” the league said.
