NBL EXPERIENCE
Gary Browne made his NBL debut with the South East Melbourne Phoenix at 29 years of age. He scored eight points in his first game.
After finishing sixth with a 15-13 record and missing the finals the previous season, South East Melbourne retained coach Simon Mitchell and a core group featuring Mitch Creek, Ryan Broekhoff, Kyle Adnam, Reuben Te Rangi, Dane Pineau, Tohi Smith-Milner and Owen Foxwell. Xavier Munford (to Hapoel Tel Aviv), Izayah Mauriohooho-Le’Afa (to New Zealand) and Cameron Gliddon (to New Zealand) departed, while imports Gary Browne (via Piratas de Quebradillas), Trey Kell III (via Olimpia Milano) and Alan Williams (via Lokomotiv Kuban) were added alongside Junior Madut (via Hawaii), Grant Anticevich (via California) and Anzac Rissetto (via Franklin Bulls).
Williams had initially been signed to replace Zhou Qi, but the Chinese centre made a late decision to return, creating a twin-towers combination that South East Melbourne hoped would help the team return to the postseason. The Puerto Rican national team captain signed a one-year deal to control the offence and provide the late-game decision-making the Phoenix had lacked during NBL22.
The season started with South East Melbourne’s new point guard sidelined after suffering a grade-one strain of the medial ligament in his knee during the opening minutes of the Phoenix’s final NBL Blitz game against Sydney. Broekhoff and Kell were also unavailable through injury, while Qi had not arrived, but Adnam (30 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists), Creek (23 points and 6 rebounds) and Williams (12 points and 7 rebounds) led South East Melbourne to an 84-79 opening-night victory over Tasmania at John Cain Arena, while Jack McVeigh (20 points) and Rashard Kelly (18 points and 6 rebounds) led the JackJumpers.
Browne (12.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 1.5 steals across 20 games) appeared in 19 regular-season games and the Play-In Qualifier, missing nine regular-season games through two injuries. The knee injury kept him out of the opening four games before a calf strain later sidelined him for another five, accounting for all nine of his absences. South East Melbourne went 2-7 without him, while his 6.5 assists per game led the NBL.
He made his NBL debut against New Zealand at Trusts Arena on October 20, with Browne (8 points and 9 assists) immediately providing the control South East Melbourne had been missing. Kell III (13 points and 5 assists) and Qi (10 points and 6 rebounds) also made their first appearances of the season, while Kyle Adnam (17 points) and Alan Williams (16 points and 9 rebounds) led the scoring as the Phoenix shot 62 per cent from the field and defeated the Breakers 99-77, while Jarrell Brantley (17 points) was New Zealand’s leading scorer.
Two days later, Browne (7 points, 11 assists, and 4 steals) delivered the game-winning basket against Brisbane at John Cain Arena. With the Phoenix trailing during the final minute, he isolated Tanner Krebs, created separation and made a pull-up jump shot as South East Melbourne won 89-88. Creek (31 points and 7 rebounds) and Adnam (10 points and 7 assists) were also important, while Jason Cadee (21 points and 5 assists) and Tyler Johnson (15 points and 4 assists) led Brisbane.
“It’s time to be a gangsta, go put that guy on an island and take us home,” Creek told him before the final possession.
Browne’s best regular-season performance came against Melbourne at John Cain Arena on November 19, where he recorded 16 points, 5 rebounds, 11 assists, and 2 steals while committing only one turnover. He scored or assisted on 28 of South East Melbourne’s 39 first-half points, with Creek (23 points and 9 rebounds) and Williams (18 points and 15 rebounds) helping the Phoenix defeat United 84-69 and record their largest Throwdown victory at the time, while Rayjon Tucker (22 points) was Melbourne’s leading scorer.
His highest-scoring regular-season game came in the next Throwdown at John Cain Arena on December 3, where Browne (17 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, and 2 steals), Williams (18 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals) and Creek (16 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 steals) helped South East Melbourne lead from start to finish and defeat Melbourne 78-72. Xavier Rathan-Mayes (15 points and 7 assists) led United as the Phoenix scored the final six points after the game had been tied at 72.
During the season, Browne explained why the opportunity with South East Melbourne had appealed to him.
“As a player you wanna be somewhere where they really embrace your skills in and outside of the court. You want to be somewhere where you can display your skills and they understand who you are as a person and as a player,” Browne said.
South East Melbourne defeated defending champion Sydney 113-112 in double overtime in Gippsland on December 18, but Browne (3 points) strained his calf late in the second quarter after playing less than eight minutes. Creek (46 points and 10 rebounds) and Kell III (21 points and 7 rebounds) carried the Phoenix after Browne and Broekhoff were injured, while Derrick Walton Jr. (45 points and 10 assists) led Sydney before South East Melbourne held on through a scoreless final minute of the second overtime.
The calf injury was expected to sideline Browne for two to three weeks and caused him to miss games against Brisbane, Adelaide, Tasmania, Sydney and Cairns. South East Melbourne won the first of those games before losing the next four, with Foxwell elevated into the rotation as his replacement. Browne continued conditioning and strength work in Melbourne while the team travelled and returned against Brisbane on January 16 after three weeks out.
“It was just from a regular step, it was nothing drastic. We’ve been working very hard in terms of my conditioning and strength…and we’re just being precautious of the injury,” Browne said.
When available, South East Melbourne’s preferred starting five was one of the strongest groups in the competition, combining for 72.9 points and 27.5 rebounds per game. Creek (23.4 points and 7 rebounds across 29 games) earned All-NBL First Team honours and won the club’s MVP award, while Williams (16.6 points and 9.9 rebounds across 28 games) led the league in rebounding. Kell III (12.5 points and 3.8 rebounds across 24 games) missed five games, largely due to broken ribs suffered during the preseason, while Broekhoff (10.3 points and 4.1 rebounds across 20 games) missed nine regular-season games through hamstring, hip and groin injuries.
The injuries created larger roles for Adnam (8.4 points across 27 games), Te Rangi (5.1 points across 29 games), Madut (4 points across 28 games) and Foxwell (3.8 points and 1.2 steals across 17 games). Qi (6.2 points and 4.4 rebounds across 9 games) returned to China for family reasons during December, providing additional opportunities for Anticevich (2.1 points across 18 games) and Rissetto (1.2 points across 5 games).
The Phoenix climbed as high as second on the ladder, but their inability to maintain a healthy starting group contributed to a drop to fifth. South East Melbourne produced the league’s best home record at 11-3 but struggled to a 4-10 record away from home.
South East Melbourne completed the regular season against Sydney at Qudos Bank Arena on January 29, where Browne (14 points, 4 rebounds, and 8 assists), Creek (29 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 steals) and Kell III (18 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists) kept the Phoenix close. Derrick Walton Jr. (22 points and 5 assists), Dejan Vasiljevic (21 points) and Xavier Cooks (16 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists) led Sydney to a 111-106 victory, leaving South East Melbourne with a 15-13 record and fifth place on the ladder.
South East Melbourne hosted Perth in the first Play-In Qualifier at John Cain Arena, with Broekhoff returning from a groin injury but still well below full fitness. Browne produced his highest-scoring game of the season with 20 points, 5 assists, and 2 steals, while Creek (24 points), Williams (16 points, 17 rebounds, and 3 steals), Kell III (14 points and 4 rebounds) and Te Rangi (14 points and 9 rebounds) helped the Phoenix build a 13-point lead early in the fourth quarter. Bryce Cotton (26 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, and 4 steals) scored 20 points during the final period, with Brady Manek (24 points) and TaShawn Thomas (13 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists) helping Perth outscore South East Melbourne 41-23 in the fourth quarter and eliminate the Phoenix 106-99.
2022/23
After finishing fifth with a 15-13 record and losing 106-99 to Perth in the Play-In Qualifier, South East Melbourne replaced Simon Mitchell with Mike Kelly as head coach and rebuilt its roster around Mitch Creek. Kyle Adnam (to Romania), Trey Kell III (to Adelaide), Ryan Broekhoff (retired) and Dane Pineau (to New Zealand) departed, while Alan Williams, Owen Foxwell, Reuben Te Rangi and Anzac Rissetto returned. Kelly added Ben Ayre (via Cairns), Gorjok Gak (via Brisbane), Matt Kenyon (via Tasmania), Rhys Vague (via Japan), Craig Moller (via Germany) and import Will Cummings (via China). Williams suffered a knee injury during the preseason, leading to Tyler Cook joining as an injury replacement.
Browne returned to South East Melbourne on a one-year deal after leading the NBL in assists during his first season with the Phoenix. His decision followed an off-season spent alongside Creek with Mets de Guaynabo in Puerto Rico, where the pair helped turn a 1-8 start into a second-place finish in Group B and a finals appearance. “We have unfinished business, especially after our season ended abruptly in the play-in qualifier,” Browne said.
Browne missed the season opener after aggravating his hip at training, with South East Melbourne losing 82-67 to Melbourne United at John Cain Arena on September 28. Ayre (17 points) and Cummings (14 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals) led the Phoenix, while Travers (20 points and 8 rebounds) was Melbourne’s best.
Browne (12 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists, and 1 steal) returned three days later against Perth, making all three of his field goal attempts in 14 minutes off the bench as South East Melbourne defeated the Wildcats 110-99. Cook (23 points and 10 rebounds) and Creek (23 points and 9 rebounds) led the Phoenix, while Henshall (24 points and 5 rebounds) was Perth’s leading scorer.
Browne (13.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.2 steals across 20 games) remained South East Melbourne’s primary point guard and led the team in assists, starting 17 games despite injuries again limiting his availability.
Browne’s best scoring game came in Brisbane on November 2, where Browne (25 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals) led South East Melbourne, but the Bullets ended the Phoenix’s four-game winning streak with a 108-92 victory. Creek (20 points and 4 rebounds) and Williams (14 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists) provided support, while Bannan (17 points and 11 rebounds) led Brisbane.
On Christmas Day in Hobart, Browne (20 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists) produced one of his best all-round performances of the season, hitting consecutive three-pointers to begin the fourth quarter and put South East Melbourne back ahead by five as the undermanned Phoenix defeated Tasmania 85-77 and improved to 9-9. Nader (20 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 steals) and Kenyon (12 points and 7 rebounds) provided support, while McVeigh (20 points and 4 rebounds) led the JackJumpers.
Five days later, Browne (13 points, 4 assists, and 3 steals) was ejected in the fourth quarter against Brisbane after striking Aron Baynes in the stomach as the Phoenix lost 95-83. Kenyon (14 points and 8 rebounds) and Williams (13 points and 11 rebounds) led South East Melbourne, while Sobey (35 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists) starred for Brisbane. Browne was initially handed a one-game suspension before it was reduced to a $1,550 fine with an early guilty plea, having already accepted a $700 fine for a separate striking charge earlier in the season.
A groin injury then sidelined Browne early in January. He briefly returned for two games before the complaint again kept him out, and he missed South East Melbourne’s final five games as the injury problems that had plagued the Phoenix throughout the season continued.
Cook (13.3 points and 7 rebounds across 3 games) departed once Williams returned, while Moller (6.2 points and 5.3 rebounds across 12 games) suffered a season-ending patellar tendon rupture. Gak (5.4 points and 4.9 rebounds across 17 games) also missed time with a calf injury, leading to Daniel Johnson joining temporarily. Cummings (14.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.7 steals across 12 games) was released in December and replaced by Nader (14.4 points and 3.9 rebounds across 8 games).
Creek (20.8 points and 6.7 rebounds across 23 games) remained South East Melbourne’s leading scorer, earning All-NBL Second Team honours and winning his fifth consecutive Phoenix MVP award. Williams (16.7 points and 10.9 rebounds across 15 games) led the league in rebounding when available, while Ayre (10.7 points across 27 games) delivered a breakout season as South East Melbourne struggled to keep its preferred lineup on the floor.
Browne remained sidelined as South East Melbourne closed the season against Sydney at John Cain Arena on February 17, where Foxwell (16 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 assists) and Creek (13 points and 3 rebounds) were unable to prevent a club-record 122-67 defeat, while Hogg (25 points and 7 rebounds) led the Kings as the Phoenix finished last with a 10-18 record.
Gary Browne played two seasons the South East Melbourne Phoenix. He averaged 12.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 5.5 assists in 40 NBL games.

COLLEGE
Gary Browne enrolled at West Virginia University in 2011 and played four seasons with the Mountaineers from 2011–12 through 2014–15, becoming a key backcourt piece during the program’s transition into the high-pressure defensive identity known as “Press Virginia.”
Across his Mountaineer career, Browne appeared in more than 120 games and averaged 6.2 points per game while recording just over one steal per contest, with his defensive activity, on-ball pressure, and pace-setting role making him an important component of West Virginia’s full-court system under head coach Bob Huggins.
As a sophomore in the 2012–13 season, Browne’s role expanded as West Virginia began to lean more heavily into its pressing style, with Browne regularly tasked with guarding opposing primary ball-handlers and igniting transition opportunities through deflections and steals.
During the 2013–14 season, Browne continued as a rotation guard while helping West Virginia secure an NCAA Tournament berth, contributing as both a perimeter scorer and defensive disruptor on a roster that emphasized depth and relentless pressure.
In his senior season in 2014–15, Browne averaged 7.0 points and 1.4 assists per game while playing a leadership role in the backcourt, helping guide West Virginia to a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament, the program’s deepest postseason run since 2010.
His senior campaign was briefly interrupted in February 2015 when he suffered an ankle sprain, though he returned to remain part of the rotation during West Virginia’s late-season surge and NCAA Tournament run.
Browne finished his West Virginia career as a durable, defensively focused guard whose impact extended beyond the box score, particularly within the Press Virginia system that became a defining feature of the Mountaineers during his tenure.
After graduating from West Virginia, Browne declared for the 2015 NBA Draft but went undrafted, bringing his NCAA career to a close after four seasons in Morgantown.
