Anthony Drmic (born 25 February 1992) is an Australian professional basketball player for the Hobart Chargers of the NBL1 South. He played college basketball for the Boise State Broncos and is their second all-time leading scorer. He led Boise State to two NCAA Tournaments during his 5 years with the Broncos. While he has represented the Australian under-19 team, he also holds a Croatian passport.

Drmic was born in Melbourne, Victoria. He attended the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) in Canberra and played for the AIS men's team in the South East Australian Basketball League (SEABL) in 2009 and 2010.

Drmic was recruited to the United States to play at Boise State with fellow Australian Igor Hadziomerovic. As a freshman in 2011–12, Drmic started all 29 games for the Broncos, averaging 12 points per game and set a school record for three-pointers by a freshman (57). At the end of the year, he was named honourable mention All-Mountain West Conference (MWC).

As a sophomore in 2012–13, Drmic raised his scoring to 17.7 points per game, leading the Broncos to the 2013 NCAA tournament in the process. As a junior in 2013–14, he was named second-team All-MWC for the second year in a row, as well as All-District by the United States Basketball Writers Association.

Prior to the start of his senior season, Drmic was named first-team preseason All-MWC. However, he managed just seven games in 2014–15 after sustaining an ankle injury that ruled him out for the rest of the season. He subsequently applied for a medical hardship to play in 2015–16 as a fifth-year senior.

In 2015–16, Drmic appeared in 31 games with 25 starts, averaging 13.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game. He subsequently earned All-Mountain West Honorable Mention selection by the media. Drmic finished his college career as the school's all-time three-point record holder, the school's games record holder, two points shy of the school's all-time leading scorer, and at No. 5 on the Mountain West Conference all-time scoring list.

On 5 May 2016, Drmic signed a two-year deal with the Adelaide 36ers of the National Basketball League. Drmic appeared in 27 games for the 36ers during the 2016–17 regular season and played an important role off the bench, averaging 14 minutes per game. He averaged 5.7 points and 3.4 rebounds per game, connecting on 45.2 percent of his field goal attempts. He led all rookies in scoring and rebounding, and as a result, he was named the recipient of the NBL Rookie of the Year Award. He became the fourth 36ers player to win the award, joining Mike McKay (1985), Chris Blakemore (1993) and Aaron Bruce (2009).

In March 2017, Drmic joined the Southern Tigers of the Premier League.
