The 27-year-old athletically gifted and defensively minded big man joins the defending champion Tasmania JackJumpers to continue his NBL career with a big role to play up front.

Having played 42 games already in the NBL at the Brisbane Bullets and South East Melbourne Phoenix, and on the back of another standout NBL1 West season, now joins the JackJumpers to head up the front court alongside Olympian Will Magnay.

Having grown up in Sydney, he played college basketball firstly at Florida State University and then at California Baptist University, where he was the blocks leader in the Western Athletic Conference.

Starting his professional career in the Czech Republic in 2021 before joining the Brisbane Bullets for NBL23 and standing 6'9 and having a 7'4 wingspan, his dunking, blocking and rebounding ability were on show, including 18 points and 13 rebounds against Melbourne United.

Played in 2023 at the Willetton Tigers of the NBL1 West and was brilliant to be named Best Defensive Player and making the All-Star Five.

On the back of that, joined the South East Melbourne Phoenix for NBL24 but his season never fully got going thanks to injury and he played just 17 games for 5.4 points and 4.9 rebounds in 16 minutes.

Returned to the NBL1 West to play at the Rockingham Flames and had another strong season making the All-First Team with 20.4 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.2 blocks ahead of now joining the JackJumpers for the first time.
