He may of left Australia for a period of time but as far as i know he lives in Wollongong.
His sun is a gun and will be a Wildcat in about 3 years.
Last I heard he was living in Melbourne.
His son will be playing at the Under 18 state champs for WA Metro..

The last time I saw Mr K. Pinder was when I last watched The Golden Era DVD :p
Sorry, couldn't resist LOL. But in all seriousness his son Keanu looks like he could well be another good player.

Still think he plays a bit in the City of Sydney comp at Alexandria.
Played at the last World Masters in Sydney and carried on like a prize Pork Chop.
From http://euroleagueadventures.com/scouting-the-adidas-nations-top-international-prospects/
Keanu Pinder, Team Australia, F, 6'8″, 1995
PPG: 10.8 RPG: 6.6 APG: 1.0 SPG: 1.8
Offensive Game: Pinder has a similar frame to Bolden although with not quite the wingspan but a little bit stronger. He plays bigger in a sense that he’s great at cutting to the hoop and going after offensive boards, making playing power forward in the future possible. He also looks to have a future off the ball. Not much of a shooter but a good driver because of his length, the best thing about Pinder is he makes quick decisions. He’s usually looking for a lane to cut through and passes or makes a play with the ball quickly, which is preferred for a non on the ball creator on offense. A good finisher who has really good ups and loves to get out on the break.
Defensive Game: Very good on defense. Pinder is great at jumping passing lanes and disrupting on defense. He just moves really well and is so long that he can get places quickly. Almost sneaky in a way and is probably better at playing help defense where he can try to cause a turnover instead of on ball defense right now.
Needs To Improve: Pinder could really become an effective power forward in the NCAA and Europe. Because he will be slightly short for that position, he needs to bulk up more to deal with interior opponents. Pinder could also up his aggressiveness on offense more. Because he makes quick decisions, he can sometimes fade in and out of his team’s offensive flow.
Future Development: Pinder could be coming over for a year of high school and then go to college. Will be interesting to see what forward position he’ll drift towards but he could be an excellent college player.
