Daryl Corletto (born August 24, 1981 in Melbourne, Australia) is an Australian basketball player who has played for the Melbourne Tigers in the NBL since 2001.
Daryl played for a junior club based in Melbourne. He was seen as a great player who had a potential to play at a higher level. His greatest honour at a younger level was being chosen in the Under 18 All-Australian team in 1998. After a solid performance in those games, he then was a member of the 22 and Under squad in 2000. The Melbourne Tigers then scouted him at a few training sessions for this team and also his local club and recruited him before the start of the 2001/02 season.
Corletto has proven to be a good pickup for them. He played 11 games in his opening season, including his first final. He was only chosen for four games though in the next year, as Lindsay Gaze was trying to win a premiership with his older players.
In the next two seasons, Corletto has played all 32 home and away games, as well as 2 finals in the 2004-05 season and 5 finals in the 2005-06 season. This is the season that the Melbourne Tigers won the title. He averaged 12 points per game in the 2005-06 season.
He is currently engaged to Australian netballer Julie Prendergast.
