STATE LEAGUE EXPERIENCE

  • Hornsby 2007



Duinker joined Hornsby for the 2007 Waratah League season, playing for the Hornsby Spiders while still based in Sydney before his later move into college basketball. The Hornsby senior men’s group used him as one of its younger top-team players that season, with Duinker and Ross Allsop stepping up into the Waratah League men’s side alongside older Hornsby juniors including Dave Bastian and Tom Wilder.

Hornsby continued through the 2007 Waratah League season with Duinker in its men’s setup, with the club’s senior home games played at the Brickpit during that early-season stretch.

FIBA EXPERIENCE

Duinker has been a member of the Dutch national basketball team and holds a New Zealand passport because of his mother.

COLLEGE

Duinker played college basketball at Richmond from 2008–09 through 2011–12 after arriving from Australia in January 2008, practicing with the Spiders and taking classes in the spring semester while redshirting that season.

He then entered the 2008–09 season on a Richmond team that finished 20–16 overall (9–7 in Atlantic 10 play) under head coach Chris Mooney, appearing in 34 games and totaling 117 points while averaging 11.3 minutes per game and shooting 47-of-96 from the field (49.0%) with 8-of-24 three-pointers.

In that 2008–09 campaign, Duinker produced his best all-around outing in the season-opening win over Randolph-Macon with 13 points, nine rebounds, and two assists, and he also had nine-point games against Virginia Tech and UNC Wilmington while adding a nine-point, six-rebound, three-assist line against Delaware State, plus a four-point, three-rebound, three-assist performance in 18 minutes at Syracuse.

As a sophomore in 2009–10, Duinker played in 24 games and made five starts for a Richmond team that went 26–9 (13–3 A-10), finished ranked 24th in the final AP poll, and reached the NCAA Tournament as a No. 7 seed before falling 80–71 to Saint Mary’s in the first round.

Across those 24 games in 2009–10, he averaged 1.9 points, 1.0 rebound, and 0.4 assists in 6.7 minutes per game, made his first career start in the win over No. 13 Florida at the South Padre Island Invitational, and logged notable stat lines that included 10 points on 4-of-6 shooting with three assists against VMI, plus five points (with a three-pointer) and a block against UNC Wilmington.

During Richmond’s 2010–11 season, Duinker appeared in 31 games for a 29–8 Spiders squad that went 13–3 in conference play, won the Atlantic 10 tournament title, and advanced to the NCAA Tournament’s Round of 16, while his personal season averages sat at 1.8 points and 1.1 rebounds in 7.1 minutes per game.

His junior-year highlights included a 10-point effort on 3-of-5 shooting against The Citadel, an eight-point game with 2-of-3 three-point shooting versus Charleston Southern, a seven-point, six-rebound performance against Southern, and a six-point, three-rebound line against Wright State.

As a senior in 2011–12, Duinker played all 32 games for Richmond, averaging 11.4 minutes while totaling 112 points on 47-of-108 shooting with 13-of-44 from three-point range, adding 64 total rebounds and 25 assists as the Spiders finished 16–16 overall (7–9 in A-10 play).

In that 2011–12 season, he set a career high with 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting while going 2-for-2 from three-point range in a win over Liberty, added 11 points on 4-of-5 shooting with 2-for-2 from three against Fordham, scored 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting versus Sacred Heart, recorded a 10-point, five-rebound night on 5-of-6 shooting against William & Mary, and also posted 10 points with six rebounds in a win over Hampton while later adding nine points with two threes against Duquesne.

To cut through the noise, we have to look beyond raw percentages. By combining historical spreadsheet data…
