Unbeatable: Archie, Bart and Don
Records, the saying goes, are meant to be broken. But there are a select few sporting achievements in Australia that are unlikely to ever be threatened, let alone broken. And here are some of them: the feats that will stand the test of time.
Andrew Gaze: 101 Games with 40+ Points
The icon of Australian basketball, Andrew Gaze was the face of basketball in Australia for two decades in which he won seven NBL MVP awards with the Melbourne Tigers and retired as the all-time scoring leader with 18,908 points. His most amazing record, however, is the amount of times he hit 40-plus points in a game. Gaze achieved the feat 101 times. Leroy Loggins sits second on the list with 23 games. No current player has achieved the feat 10 times. With quarters reduced to 10 minutes and there being much less money in the NBL these days, no player will ever get the opportunity to get close to Gaze’s record.
