Boomer and Aussie NBA prospect aiming to make history

Victorian Anthony Dell'Orso sits on the precipice of Australian basketball history and isn't shying away from achieving what he calls the most difficult title in sport.

Dell'Orso (University of Arizona) and fellow Australian Jacob Furphy (University of Connecticut) will represent their colleges in the March Madness Final Four, with passage to the final of the United States' top college basketball tournament up for grabs.

They are aiming to join an exclusive club of Australian men to have been members of championship-winning teams, with Justin Brown (1999), Kody Stattmann (2019), and Alex Condon (2025) the only victors.
