I appreciate all the messages in regards to my circumstances. It’s a scary thing, and I appreciate the love and support. Especially from my team mates former coaches and family ❤️
I don’t want or need sympathy. Another step in the journey. I wasn’t expecting to be drafted. 6 months ago I wasn’t even on teams radars and to even be considered shows how far I’ve come, and have a long way to go. Stay tuned for what’s next to come. Up from here 👀

Since my injury I haven’t had one message from the Brisbane Bullets. Only people I hear from are my former team mates and Sammy Mack, and other NBL clubs. Makes you wonder what goes on in those offices. Not even a message asking if I would like access to the gym, or physio. 👎🏼
With all the young talent & Next Stars guys coming into the league this season, it would be awesome to see the

go to 48min games this season. Would give young guys a lot more opportunity!
For clarity, the

fully supported me in the NBA and chasing my dream. They haven’t blocked me from anything, and were in full support of me making the NBA this year given the chance. I am excited to get to work in Adelaide this year! 💪🏼
Despite the barrage of messages and threats I have been receiving by his family and friends, here’s the truth. All evidence is public, I was never aggressive, and I didn’t respond to his girlfriend pushing me. I was never in trouble or under investigation for anything.

to go out and perform the way he did today, after being with Uncle Trevor yesterday for sadly what was his last day with us. Don’t underestimate how hard it has been for him the last 24 hours. ❤️
Justice has prevailed, and although it’s been the most difficult time of my life, I’m glad the Police and Justice system has prevailed and handed down a deserving punishment. Two lives forever changed by one punch.
ONE PUNCH CAN KILL.
Before you tweet about athletes or what you think you know. Think twice. You never know what people are going through, and your comments, do have a huge impact. Makes mental health rounds pointless if we don’t actually do something and support those in need. That is all 👍🏻
Congrats to
@markushoward11
on scoring 1900 more college points than me. Pretty special thing considering how much I dominated at Marquette. Congrats brother 🙏🏻💪🏼
In the NBL, players have a minimum wage & I think Assistant coaches should also get a minimum. A lot of the assistants work for peanuts on the dollar, and are some of the hardest working people. Make it a legitimate longtermcareer being an AC, and watch the product grow 📈
Not many know about my mums accomplishments, because she is so quiet and humble. But I will brag for her. Congrats on life membership in the

Safe travels to the little bro Sam, Mum and Dad! Official visits to Wichita St, Creighton, Maryland and Arizona lined up for him! Enjoy and do what’s best for you! 🇦🇺🏀

When you start living the life of your dreams, there will always be obstacles, doubters, mistakes and setbacks along the way. But with hard work, perseverance and self-belief there is no limit to what you can achieve.

4 point game, teams season on the line, contracts on the line & the refs miss something as simple as this. But let’s blame the coaches and players bad attitudes shall we. Because there is absolutely nothing wrong with the refs and everyone makes mistakes. Sheeeeshhhh 🤦🏼♂️
I think the NBL has it wrong giving Baynes 5 games and only giving Browne 1 game. A punch is a punch. Sets a bad precedent and smells a bit fishy to me, using Baynesy to make a point, but not bringing the hammer down on Browne is wrong especially a second striking incident.
Americans need to quit with the irrational thinking and make a change.... gun laws here are looked down upon by everyone in the world... except for a number of people in the USA. Ridiculous.

Guy who punched me plead guilty to GBH & the evidence presented in his defence is I was dancing too close to his girlfriend’s friends, and patted one of them on the head. Stay tuned for my side. Coincidentally his fight an hour earlier in the night, must have also been provoked🤔
I agree with two sisters and a mum who used to play WNBL I don’t think it’s promoted or respected enough in Oz 🇦🇺 There’s literally a WNBL game on everyday, they should be pumping the s*** out of it on social media and getting as many eyes on it as possible. Respect the game!
Magnay is something the Boomers have been missing for a long time. Someone who comes in and doesn’t need the ball, affects nearly every shot and plays super hard. Looks good out there! Letssss gooooo!!!! 🦘
Practice what you preach!!!! Not sure how many times
@ThonMaker14
would tell me to stay ready and keep working like I was playing 40min a game whether I got on or not! Reason he is where he is today!!! Proud of you my son 💪🏼
Imagine having such a sad life all you can do is hate on others, and other peoples dreams & careers (usually anonymously). I genuinely feel sorry for some people.
The victim blaming ends here. Point blank. The offender also got in a fight earlier in the night, and was obviously out to cause trouble. All evidence is publicly available, and someone being tall and “annoying” isn’t a reason to coward punch them 👍🏻
Or when our private health (paid by the club) had to be back paid to December, as the club forgot to pay it resulting in a bunch of guys running around without private health for months, including myself at the time of my injury! Just letting off some steam. Rant over. For now 👍🏻
Sobes long serving Bullet, hardest worker at the club and plays his ass off every game, and Bullets parting message “He’s a long time servant of the club BUT we really felt we need to lean into our culture and our habits we believe in every single day.”
Very ordinary 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
A thug has admitted to a brutal attack on North Melbourne champion Jack Ziebell but could walk away with just a fine. Security footage just released by the courts shows how the former Roos captain was punched without warning just hours after he retired.

Adelaide to come back from where they were, and be a legit shot at the 6 should not go unnoticed. It is actually wild, and unless you’ve been in that situation, you don’t realise how hard it is. Wild. Awesome to see.
Kudos to Jesse Wagstaff on 450. I don’t care what sport, league or level you play at 450 games is unbelievable! Especially for one club! Legend of the game and a winner. Deserves his flowers!! 🌷
New at KSR: RJ Hampton chose pro basketball overseas over playing college hoops. Good for him. But a simple Google search reveals one simple thing: In no way will playing in New Zealand better prepare him for the NBA than college basketball would have
Crazy 12 months. College basketball to becoming a pro, to now playing Utah Jazz OCTOBER 5th. Pencilling that date on my calendar. 📝

@NBL
I’ve been saying it all year. The refs are the biggest thing holding the NBL back. Yet everyone wants to defend them and make the excuse that everyone makes mistakes and blah blah it’s the players and coaches not refs. 🤷🏼♂️ more people are talking about it. Smoke=Fire 🔥
I honestly have no idea if Adam Forde’s critique of David Stevenson and NBL officiating is fineable, because it was entirely sarcastic. Pretty damn scathing.
