Show Notes

A storied 16-year professional basketball career will soon come to an end for Breakers forward Tom Abercrombie.

The club's all-time leader in games and points will retire at the conclusion of the NBL season, after winning four championships with the side.

Abercrombie made his debut in 2008, and has racked up a record 425 appearances during his long-running athletic career.

He says he's 'extremely grateful' for the time he's spent on the team, but he's ready for his next adventure.

"It's time for me to experience new challenges and adventures, and pass that baton over to someone else."

Abercrombie's final home game for the Breakers will likely be this Friday against Brisbane at Spark Arena.
