Chris Blakemore (born 17 May 1974) is an Australian former professional basketball player.

Blakemore was born in Adelaide and raised in Whyalla, South Australia.[1] He attended the Australian Institute of Sport and played for the program's South East Australian Basketball League (SEABL) team from 1991 to 1992.[1] Blakemore began his professional career with the Adelaide 36ers of the National Basketball League (NBL) and was named the NBL Rookie of the Year in 1993.[2] Blakemore was selected for the NBL Most Improved Player Award in 1994.[2] His performance dropped during the 1995 NBL season and culminated with an incident where Blakemore elbowed Perth Wildcats player Martin Cattalini during a game, resulting in his suspension through the playoffs.[3]

Blakemore was subsequently released by the Adelaide 36ers and he signed with the Canberra Cannons.[2][4] He was hampered by a knee injury during the 1996 season and only appeared in three games totalling five minutes.[2] In 1998, Blakemore signed with the Brisbane Bullets for what would be his final season in the NBL.[2]

In 2001–02, Blakemore played in the Australian Basketball Association (ABA) for the Albury Wodonga Bandits.[2]
