The fourth SGA Goldy Gopher Bobblehead was the basketball version. It was the third of five Goldy bobbleheads sponsored by Rainbow Foods. Bobbleheads were given to the first 10,000 fans attending the Minnesota - Minnesota Duluth exhibition basketball game on November 12, 2001 at Williams Arena. The Gophers won the first basketball contest between the two schools 67 to 59.
In addition to the 10,000 bobbleheads given to basketball fans, Rainbow Foods had an additional 5,000 made which were sold in their grocery stores.
The basketball version Goldy bobblehead is a AGP Bobble Dobbles bobblehead.
