Recent news on Andrew Gaze centers on two things: he was elevated to Legend status in the Sport Australia Hall of Fame, and he remains active as coach of the Melbourne Tigers men’s team in NBL1 South.[2][3]
Andrew Gaze was recognized as the 53rd Legend of Australian Sport, with the honor highlighted in late 2025 coverage and his dedication to the achievement tied to his father, Lindsay Gaze. The same coverage notes that he is still closely involved with basketball and coaching at the Melbourne Tigers.[3][5][2]
Gaze is coaching the Melbourne Tigers men’s team and re-signed for the 2026 season, after leading them to the 2025 NBL1 South Grand Final. That keeps him visible in Australian basketball beyond his broadcast and former-player profile.[8][3]
There was also a recent media appearance tied to “This Is Your Life” on YouTube, posted April 14, 2026, featuring Andrew Gaze. Separately, his social and basketball-media presence continues through NBL-related coverage and discussion.[4][7][8]
If you want, I can turn this into a tighter “latest headlines” roundup or a timeline of his recent activity.
