Basketball star Matthew Dellavedova lists Melbourne home
The ex-Melbourne United player signed a three-year deal with the Sydney Kings this year.
In 2016, Dellavedova won an NBA championship as a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers alongside the league's all-time highest scorer LeBron James.
Afterwards, the Aussie champion signed a four-year $US38 million (A$50.5m) to play with the Milwaukee Bucks although he returned to Cleveland from 2018 to 2021.
Dellavedova was part of the Australian mens' team, the Boomers, that won bronze at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
He also represented Australia at the 2012, 2016 and 2024 Olympics.
In March 2025, Dellavedova made headlines when handed his NBL finals' MVP title to the Illawarra Hawks' Will 'Davo' Hickey following a Melbourne United loss to the NSW side.
Dellavedova declined to accept the award, saying that it truly belonged to Hickey after 'a hell of a series'.
The video went viral, amassing more millions views on social media, and Dellavedova was widely acclaimed for his show of sportsmanship.
The Dellavedovas' bayside home features a terrace, pool, spa and outdoor barbecue kitchen
on its 897sq m block.
Inside the circa-1890s, five-bedroom house there's four living areas, formal lounge and dining rooms, a cellar and an office.
An open-plan kitchen opens to the landscaped garden where there's a separate studio with its own bathroom next to the pool.
The house's Victorian-era charms such as high ceilings and fireplaces have been retained but mod cons include airconditions and hydronic heating.
It's also close to the beach, shops, schools and public transport.
Belle Property Sandringham principal director Fran Harkin declined to comment.
In 2022, Dellavedova listed a lakefront, Tudor-style six-bedroom house in Wisconsin with a $US$2.1 million (A$3.1m) price tag.
Expressions of interest in the Sandringham house close at 5pm on June 30.

Country town residents relive AC/DC, Sherbet tours of the 1970s
Brent Ladyman remembers seeing AC/DC perform for just $3.20 like it was yesterday. He not only saw the rock band play live, but went to the local pub with the band members afterwards. But laughing together and clinking glasses in the dimly lit pub in 1975, he could not have predicted their mammoth international success. The now multi-platinum rock band toured Australia in 1975 and visited regional towns such as Katanning, nearly 300 kilometres south-east of Perth, where Mr Ladyman worked at the local radio station. "They were a new band and like all the bands … they needed to be promoted, so the way to do it was to contact the local radio station," he said. Now a retired farmer, Mr Ladyman said there was an obvious "buzz" around town as locals waited in anticipation to see the band perform. "It was huge. It was in the Katanning Town Hall. I think the hall held about 600 people," he said. "We promoted it as part of the radio station, so [the space] was full. "It was pretty rowdy, and I just remember when we arrived and met the band, the instruction for me was to stand by the stairs at the stage and not to let any girls on the stage, which I thought was a bit odd but there you go." Mr Ladyman said after the gig, he and the band, including Bon Scott, headed to the pub together. "Don't remember too much really," he laughed. "It was late in the night, I think there were some card games that were going at the time … I remember being in the bar and drinking beer with these guys." The Sydney-formed rock band were not the only artists to visit the Katanning community. Katanning Travel Centre owner Andrew Pritchard recalled playing cards with Daryl Braithwaite, when he was the lead singer of Sherbet. "In the '70s and '80s there was just live music everywhere … but no-one ever imagined that they were going to be world-stage and as big as they were." Mr Pritchard said the local shire tried to get INXS to perform at the new recreation centre in 1997. "When they did actually approach the management of INXS, they said they'd need $100,000 as a starting point and we sort of thought, 'Gosh what would we have to charge ticket-wise?'" Mr Pritchard said while they were not able to get INXS to play, he had countless fond memories of Australian artists trekking out to his country town. Mr Ladyman said it was a pity that bands and festivals "barely made it to Perth" these days, let alone the regions. "It would be nice to get back to the old days, but I just can't see it happening because it's just a numbers thing," he said. Regional Sounds arts development officer Sarah Hinton said travel logistics were a barrier to getting acts out of the bigger cities. "The cost of travel, the accessibility to flights, and then how are you going to cart all your equipment around?" she said. Despite this, Ms Hinton said the economic and social impacts of a music festival were "just massive". "At a live music event, you get great entertainment, but then there's also food-truck vendors … the small businesses that provide the fencing, toilets … tents, there's the hire cars that help get the artists around, there's hotels," she said. "We will always say that the government can subsidise us, but we will provide a huge return on that investment." Ms Hinton said work was being done to get more concerts to regional WA, and triple j's Hottest 100 countdown was a good way to get people to talk about music. "It's been so nice listening to all these songs on the radio … and then hearing people call in and talk about their memories," she said.

Peter V'landys flags major change to State of Origin eligibility rules
Rugby league supremo Peter V'landys has revealed the ARL Commission are considering a landmark change to State of Origin eligibility rules in a bid to reduce the impact on New Zealand and England's national teams. Under the current rules, players who are eligible for tier-one nations New Zealand and England effectively have to choose whether they want to play internationals against Australia or play Origin. But players eligible for tier-two nations such as Tonga and Samoa, are eligible to play for New South Wales or Queensland. NSW Blues stars Brian To'o, Stephen Crichton and Jarome Luai have all pledged to play for Samoa at this year's Pacific Championships. Rising Canberra Raiders star Kaeo Weekes was the latest big name to make the decision, committing to a representative career with Australia and the NSW Blues after reportedly rejecting an approach to play for the Kiwis. Dolphins young gun Isaiya Katoa also previously opted to play for Tonga over New Zealand in order to keep his Origin hopes alive in the future. But that could all change as the ARL Commission reviews a potential change to eligibility. 'It is something we're going to have to look at again and to me there does seem to be a stronger push this time for change,' V'landys told SMH. 'It is a strong argument that if you've played your footy in Australia before the age of 13 and you are eligible to play Origin, why shouldn't you be able to? 'If we were to change the rules, it would only be for New Zealand and English players. 'They're the tier-one countries impacted. [Players from] tier-two nations like Samoa and Tonga can still play State of Origin and represent those nations. 'It's a polarising idea. When we've consulted on any possible Origin eligibility changes some people have loved it, others hated it. 'We want a strong international game and calendar, and we want Australia to be challenged. And we want to respect the players and the nations they want to play for, and the argument for change is one we'll consider. 'It wouldn't be open slather – it would be mostly New Zealand players, and any change would be considered to ensure they're not left behind.' Under the potential changes, Kalyn Ponga could play for the Kiwis and Queensland, while Victor Radley would be free to represent England and NSW. That is the only change under consideration, and players would still need to have lived in NSW or Queensland before 13 to qualify for Origin. According to NZRL chief Greg Peters, 11 players in this year's Origin squads are eligible for the Kiwis. Peters welcomed the potential changes, highlighting Ponga as the perfect example. 'A guy like Kalyn Ponga is a good example. He's a proud Maori, proud New Zealander and a proud Queenslander. But at the moment he doesn't have the ability to play for New Zealand should he chose to. He's a really good example,' he said. 'The other one is Jarome Luai. Who knows, Jarome Luai might probably want to play for Samoa, and good on him for doing so. 'But he played Junior Kiwis and the point is that his pathway to the Kiwis was shut down the moment he was selected to play Origin. 'Samoa is going to have a team stacked full of Origin players, which is great for the game, but it's not available to us. We strongly support a review of these rules.'
