The australian big man started the year as a two-way player for the New Orleans Pelicans

The Perth Wildcats have signed star Australian centre Will Magnay for the remainder of the 2020/21 NBL Season.

It’s a major coup for the Wildcats, with the 208cm big man only recently becoming available following a stint with the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA.

The 22-year-old is excited to have put pen to paper with the reigning NBL Champions

“To come back and play for a team like Perth, with all its history and its success, and play under a coach like Trevor, it’s a great opportunity,” said Magnay.

“I want to win, there’s a culture there of winning. Stats or awards don’t mean anything if you don’t get that championship at the end. I think this would be a special moment to win one and that’s what I’m here for, to help the boys win.

“My game style is to play hard and play the right way. I’ll do what it takes to win and be a good teammate. That’s what you can expect from me.

“The opportunity to play basketball again, at such a historic team like Perth, is exciting. I’m just dying to get back on the court.”
