Biography
Took the NBL by storm in his first season at the Cairns Taipans and now will look to continue that on at the defending champion Sydney Kings in the 2023/24 season.
With a calm and composed approach, combined with the ability to do so many things so well, and to have a big impact on games at both ends of the floor with and without the ball, and living for the big moments in games, he quickly became one of the NBL's standout players in NBL23.
Was playing in the NBL for the first time and was instrumental in the Taipans reaching the Playoffs by delivering 18.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 steals a game, to be named to the All-Second Team.
The supremely versatile forward grew up in Columbus, Ohio and attended college at Texas A&M University and played with the Aggies for three seasons, where he averaged 9.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists across 91 appearances.
Decided to leave early to begin his professional career and played the 2018/19 season in the NBA G League at the Delaware Blue Coats, before joining the Wisconsin Herd in 2019/20.
Played the 2021 hub season with the Lakeland Magic, before then looking overseas to play with Cholet Basket in France in 2021/22 and then started his NBL career with the Taipans in 2022/23, and didn’t waste any time showing what he was capable of with his tremendous all-round game.
