Kevin John Lisch (born May 16, 1986) is an American-born Australian professional basketball player for the Sydney Kings of the National Basketball League (NBL). He played college basketball for Saint Louis University (SLU), where he finished as the sixth-highest scorer in school history. After winning an NBL Championship with the Perth Wildcats in 2010—along with the league’s MVP award in 2012—Lisch made a return to the NBL for the 2015–16 season, joining the Illawarra Hawks, and ended up walking away with another MVP trophy, as well as the NBL’s best defensive player award. In 2016, he became an Australian citizen and joined the Sydney Kings. That same year, he made his debut for the Australian national team at the Rio Olympics. He also holds an Italian passport thanks to his mother, which allowed him to play as a local in France and Spain between 2013 and 2015.
As a senior in 2008–09, Lisch was named ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American third team and was a first-team Academic All-District selection. He was chosen to the NABC All-District second team and voted the A-10 Men’s Basketball Student-Athlete of the Year. He was also third-team All-Conference and was named to the Las Vegas Classic All-Tournament team. In 31 games as a senior, he averaged 14.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 steals per game.
In July 2009, Lisch signed with the Perth Wildcats of the Australian National Basketball League. He was swayed to come to Perth due to the close friendship between Billikens coach Rick Majerus and Wildcats coach Rob Beveridge. Due to the high-profile imports traditionally signed by the Wildcats in the past, some were calling for Lisch to be cut as early as the preseason tournament. Lisch debuted with a 12-point effort on September 25, 2009, against the Wollongong Hawks, and then had the game-winning, buzzer-beating 3-pointer against the Townsville Crocodiles on October 2 to finish with 16 points. In his sixth game on October 25, Lisch scored a season-high 21 points against the Melbourne Tigers. Overall, Lisch struggled to begin his rookie season. He scored in double figures in seven of his first eight games before registering 11 single-figure games throughout the rest of the season, including five straight games of under seven points between December 19 and January 8. He finished the regular season scoring in double figures in four out of the final six games, including a 19-point effort in the regular-season finale on February 14 against the Crocodiles.
