His time in the Queensland league was short but there’s no doubt Brad Davidson will go down as one of the best guards to play in the state league. The former Suncoast Clipper, who was brought to the club after dropping 60 points against them in a Preseason match in Grafton, won two golden hands awards for steals while in Queensland and went close to averaging a triple double in the 1995 and 1996 seasons.
Despite only playing two years, Davidson was a nightmare opponent for other guards and following his time in Queensland, would go on to have a long and successful career in the NBL with many teams including Townsville, Cairns, Hunter Pirates, Adelaide 36ers and more.
Davidson also won a gold medal with the Boomers at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne.
