Player Profile

A foundation Breaker, Dillon Boucher comes back for another tilt at a third ANBL title to go with his 8 NZ titles. If any player is looking to replicate a career and development on and off court in that time, this is the guy they want to talk to. Always a defensive lynchpin in any side and a leader on and off court.

The 1.96cm forward is no stranger to success, the most recent in 2010/11 season. He also made the NZ NBL All-Star Five in 2002, 2003 and 2007. Now retired from the Tall Blacks, the New Plymouth born Boucher made his NZ debut at the Goodwill Games in 2001 and was a member of the hugely successful 2002 World Championship team that won Team of the Year and overall honours at the Halberg Awards in early 2003. He also attended the Athens Olympics in 2004 and the 2006 World Champs in Japan during an international career that finished just a dozen matches short of 100 games.

Over his ANBL career, Boucher has totaled 4.3 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game. 

Dillon added a second ANBL title to his impressive Basketball CV in 2011 as the Breakers took out their first championship. Dillon was also a member of the victorious Brisbane Bullets team that won the title in 2007.

A tenacious defender with a good eye for the pass Dillon does a huge amount of work that is often unnoticed by the average fan but appreciated by his team mates.
