Redhage signed with the New Zealand Breakers of the National Basketball League (NBL) for the 2004–05 season. He made an impressive start to the season and was one of the Breakers' stand-out performers in the early clashes. A slump in form led to limited court time in late November and he was eventually released on 6 December 2004.[7][8] In 13 games for the Breakers, he averaged 12.2 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game.[9]

Redhage returned to the SEABL for the 2005 season, this time playing for the Bendigo Braves.[6] He helped the Braves win the SEABL South title, where he was named MVP of the conference grand final for his 43 points and 13 rebounds.[10] He was also named SEABL South most valuable player for the second straight year.[11] In the ABA National Final, he helped the Braves win the ABA National championship with a 102–98 win over the Sydney Comets.[12][13]

Perth Wildcats (2005–2017)

[edit]

Birth of "The Scoring Machine" (2005–2009)

In the 2007–08 season, Redhage averaged a career-best 22.9 points per game[15] and became the fastest Wildcat to reach 2,000 career points, doing so in 95 games and 3,400 minutes.[23] On 10 October 2007, he scored a career-high 40 points against the Adelaide 36ers.[21]

Redhage averaged at least 19 points and eight rebounds per game every year between 2005–06 and 2008–09[15] and subsequently earned a place in the All-NBL Team in four straight seasons.

The Wildcats lost four consecutive games following Redhage's injury, winning only two from the remaining eight matches.[31] Despite missing the second half of the season, Redhage shared Club MVP honours with Kevin Lisch.[32]

J. Bruton in game two.[38][39]
