Has great size, great athleticism, great explosiveness and all the tools there to be a difference-maker in the NBL as he makes the move to Far North Queensland to join the Cairns Taipans.

The 21-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 past 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.

Is fresh off a standout 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.

Has now signed a two-year deal to join the Taipans and will be looking to join the impressive list of developing players to thrive under reigning NBL Coach of the Year Adam Forde.
