For the third straight game, a Hawk will bring up his 50th game in Illawarra colours.
Following Brian Goorjian and Justinian Jessup bringing up the milestone, Hawks point guard Tyler Harvey will play his 50th game for the foundation club on Saturday when Illawarra hosts the Cairns Taipans at the WIN Entertainment Centre.
"My time here has flown by and I've loved each and every one of the games I've played in Hawks colours," Harvey said.
"Bringing up the 50-game milestone feels great and I hope to add plenty more to that tally in the coming years.
"It's an honour to be a part of this organisation and I can't wait to add to its proud legacy, starting on Saturday against Cairns."

A moment that stands out for the Eastern Washington alum is when his Hawks clinched their NBL21 play-off berth against Perth in June.
"The atmosphere with the fans and locker room with the boys after that win, to secure our spot in the post-season, is why you play this game - it's a feeling you want to bottle up and achieve every single season," the 28-year-old said.
"As a group, we pushed so hard just to make the four, under all those crazy circumstances, so to achieve what we did is something I'll never forget."
Tickets for Saturday's match, which has a game night partner of RIG, are available via Ticketmaster.
