Professional career

Unfortunately little is known about the professional basketball career of Orlando Phillips. What is known is that in 1989 he played for the Adelaide 36ers in the Australian National Basketball League. Phillips played 25 games for the 36ers where he averaged 20.4 points, 10.9 rebounds, 1.0 blocked shot and he shot the ball at 62.5% per game.[1] Phillips had a slow start to the 1989 NBL season still recovering from a broken foot but his numbers increased through the season. He wore the number "00" for the 36ers and early in the NBL season before his form changed, the joke in Adelaide was that 00 stood for "Oh Oh".

Phillips also had a stint in the Euroleague with Pau Orthez in the 1992-93 season. He played 14 games for Orthez and averaged 12 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.
