Forward

Slacke, who played as an Aussie in his final seasons with the Hawks, never averaged more than 24 points a season, wasn’t a prolific rebounder and played on rickety knees.

But he was a consistent, dependable contributor in seven seasons with the Hawks and went out on a high note by averaging 20ppg in his swansong campaign in ‘85 - the most he’d scored since his first season.

Slacke still ranks as one of the NBL’s all-time best free throw shooters with an 86 per cent clip for his career.
