NBL EXPERIENCE
Steve Taylor made his NBL debut with the South East Melbourne Phoenix at 28 years of age. He scored three points in his first game.
After making their maiden Finals appearance the year prior, South East Melbourne looked to go one step further. The Phoenix’s first move was re-signing coach Simon Mitchell (one year deal), who then went about retaining the majority of the team’s local core, locking in Kyle Adnam, Ryan Broekhoff, Izayah Le’Afa and Mitch Creek re-signing.
Although both Keifer Sykes (to NBA) and Yanni Wetzell (to New Zealand) would exit the club, they would be replaced by Tohi Smith-Milner (via Melbourne), Zhou Qi, a member of the Chinese national team and imports Zach Hankins and Xavier Munford.
South East Melbourne started the season on fire, winning three of its first four games, but after injuries to Qi and Ryan Broekhoff, a disappointing second half of the season saw the Phoenix manage to win only six out of their last 14 games and finish in sixth place (15-13). The only high in the second half of the season was a overtime win over Perth (102-100) that ended the Wildcat’s 35-year playoff streak.
With injuries and players missing games due to COVID-19 protocols, a number of players were brought in and out of the team’s main roster. Taylor, who signed as a development player, managed to appear in one game as a result, scoring a total of three points.
Steve Taylor played in one NBL game during the 2021-22 season, scoring 3 points, 3 rebounds, and 0 assists.
Dan Boyce is a die-hard Sydney Kings fan who grew up in Melbourne during the roaring 90's of Australian Basketball and spent far too much time collecting Futera NBL Basketball cards.
