Wildcats Celebrate Major Milestones for Wagstaff and Doolittle

Jesse Wagstaff Lands in the NBL’s Top 10 for All-Time Games Played:

Perth Wildcats veteran captain Jesse Wagstaff has officially moved into the top 10 all-time for most games played in NBL history.

His 517th appearance which came against the New Zealand Breakers on Saturday evening, cements his status among the league’s most durable and respected competitors.

Wagstaff, who debuted for Perth in 2009 and has worn Wildcats red for his entire career, continues to be a central figure in the club’s culture, leadership, and success.

Now in his 17th season, he has been an integral part of multiple championship runs, helped develop the next generation of Wildcat stars, and remains one of the league’s most reliable voices on and off the floor.

Kristian Doolittle Reaches 500 NBL Career Rebounds:

Kristian Doolittle also hit a major career marker this week, recording his 500th NBL rebound during Saturday night’s win at RAC Arena.

Doolittle has continued to build on the versatility and physical presence that has made him an immediate fan favourite. 

His rebounding has been a defining part of his impact, and the 500-rebound milestone underlines his consistency on the glass.

Doolittle has been in strong form through the opening stretch of the Hungry Jack's NBL26 season, highlighted by a 15-point final quarter in the win over New Zealand and continued reliability on the boards.

The Perth Wildcats are proud to celebrate these achievements with Wagstaff and Doolittle, two leaders who continue to represent the club and the Red Army with excellence. 

Jesse Wagstaff will move into equal ninth in the top 10 all-time NBL games with his 518th appearance, when the Wildcats meet the Tasmania JackJumpers, Friday 21 November at RAC Arena.
