Andrew Mitchell Vlahov OAM (born 1 April 1969) is an Australian retired professional basketball player.
He played his entire eleven-year professional career for the Perth Wildcats of the National Basketball League (NBL), with whom he won three championships in 1991, 1995 and 2000.
[1] Andrew Vlahov initially attended Kent Street Senior High School in south Perth, but unfortunately Kent Street Senior did not have a basketball team, but he played in his local junior team the Perth Redbacks where he would meet long time friend and future Australian Boomers teammate Luc Longley.
In his time as owner of the Wildcats, Vlahov was instrumental in the NBL's push into the Asian market including match telecasts to Asian countries and the now discontinued "Singapore Spectacular" (a regular season match where the Wildcats played host to another NBL team in Singapore).
The success of the spectacular actually led to the Singapore Slingers (formerly the Canberra Cannons (1979-2002) and Hunter Pirates (2003–2006)) joining the NBL in 2006.
