Playing career

NBL

Petrie made his debut in the National Basketball League (NBL) for the West Sydney Razorbacks during the 2007–08 season. For the 2008–09 NBL season, he joined the Wollongong Hawks.

Between 2009 and 2012, Petrie played for the Gold Coast Blaze. For the 2009–10 season, he named the NBL's Most Improved Player and earned All-NBL Second Team honours after averaging 11.3 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. Three games into the 2010–11 season, he suffered a season-ending Achilles tendon rupture.

Between 2012 and 2016, Petrie played for the Adelaide 36ers. He helped the 36ers reach the 2014 NBL Grand Final series, where they lost 2–1 to the Perth Wildcats.

He damaged the same knee again during the 2017–18 season and subsequently had one last knee operation in November 2017 to see him through the season. He retired from the NBL in February 2018.
