Biography
Grabbed his chances that presented to show what he was capable of in his first season at the Cairns Taipans in NBL24 and now will look to continue on with that momentum.
The 22-year-old has been a talent on the rise for some time now since starting with the Illawarra Hawks as a development player back in the 2020/21 season.
Ended up making 21 appearances with the Hawks over the next three seasons including finishing NBL23 taking his opportunities with eight points and nine rebounds over the past two games.
He is capable of much more than that and with great length and size, he is an explosive athlete who can throw it down and be a rim protector, but continues to improve his shooting all the time.
Had a standout 2023 NBL1 North season at the Southern Districts Spartans where he delivered 17.3 points, 9.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.2 blocks a game.
That saw him get the chance to continue his rise with the Taipans in NBL24 where he might have only averaged 5.5 points and 3.7 rebounds, but had some standout performances including 21 points and 14 rebounds against the Adelaide 36ers.
Then played the NBL1 Central season with the West Adelaide Bearcats putting up 19.3 points and 9.3 rebounds ahead of a second season with the Snakes.
