South East Melbourne Phoenix has landed one of the biggest fish in the 2020 NBL free agency period, signing Australian Boomer Cam Gliddon.
Gliddon joins Boomers teammate Mitch Creek at the Phoenix on a two-year deal.
The 30-year-old won gold for Australia at the 2017 FIBA Asia Cup and 2018 Commonwealth Games and was a member of the fourth-placed FIBA World Cup team last year.
Gliddon joins the Phoenix following stints at Brisbane and Cairns. The Bullets and Gliddon mutually agreed to part ways during the off-season.
Renowned as one of the premier shooters in the league, the Western Australian will likely take the mantle as the Phoenix’s starting shooting guard for NBL21.
“I really liked what the Phoenix did last year. Everything I heard from Gibbo (Adam Gibson) and Kyle Adnam and Dane Pineau while I was at the Boomers was positive.
“I was really excited that they showed interest in me, and that the deal got done and I’m down here.”
Phoenix CEO Tommy Greer is delighted to add the Australian Boomer and star sharpshooter to their dynamic lineup.
“Signing the hottest free agent on the market is a significant coup for our club and an exciting prospect for our fans ahead of our second season.
“Anyone who has represented Australia at a World Cup is an elite talent and a huge addition to an NBL side. Cam will immediately make us stronger on both ends of the court and bring great basketball IQ and experience to our locker room.
“A constant in our recruiting focus from day one has been on great characters and Cam fits that bill perfectly. He’ll be loved by our community in the South East.”
Gliddon has forged a reputation as a clutch shot maker late in games, an important addition to the Phoenix puzzle as the team looks to resolve their close game heartbreaks last season.
The former NBL Rookie of the Year says the idea of building a championship team in the Heartland of basketball lured him to the club.
“Being in South East Melbourne, the biggest basketball hub in the country, you know the team’s going to be supported if you do the right things in the community and conduct yourselves the right way,” Gliddon said.
“I was pretty keen to get down here and be a part of that and help the team build.
Gliddon has just settled into Melbourne with his wife and baby daughter and will immediately join the team as they prepare for NBL21.
South East Melbourne’s roster now includes Gliddon, Mitch Creek, Dane Pineau, Kyle Adnam, Adam Gibson and Kendall Stephens.

The Adelaide 36ers have signed 2018 NBL Rookie of the Year Isaac Humphries on a two-year deal which sees the big man return from the NBA G-League where he has spent the past two seasons.

The Atlanta Hawks signed Humphries for the end of the 2018/19 NBA season, which saw him suit up in five games in total.
The 22 year-old said he was excitement to get to Adelaide and begin working towards NBL21 with new coach Conner Henry.
“I’m really excited to get down to Adelaide and to get around my new teammates and to see the city, I also can’t wait to get started with Coach Henry I think we are putting together an excellent group of guys, I just can’t wait to get there to start!” Humphries said.
Henry praised Humphries’ skillset and his fit with the other players that are on the Sixers roster.
“He is a complete offensive five-man – he can play inside as a dominant scorer or stretch the floor out to three-point range.”
“Throughout the recruiting process, we identified Isaac as the ideal fit for our team, and with DJ next to him going forward we feel we just got a lot stronger in the front court. He is a quality young man, a high-level player, and has plenty of upside still to come. We couldn’t be happier to have him part of the 36ers team,” Henry concluded.
Adelaide’s roster for the coming season now includes Humphries, Daniel Johnson, Obi Kyei, Jack McVeigh, Alex Mudronja, Daniel Dillon, Brendan Teys and Next Stars signing Josh Giddey.

“It’s been a pleasure following his growth at Saint Mary’s and I’m pleased that he has chosen to start his professional career with us.
“The way Tanner plays the game and his work ethic fit nicely with who we are as a team. Tanner has a tremendous desire to get better and I know he will give his all for the team – whether that be in practice, in games, in the locker room or making a positive difference in the community.
“He is an exciting addition for the Club. I look forward to him joining us soon and beginning the next stage in his basketball career together.”
Krebs said: “The reason I chose Brisbane was because I like the organisation and I like the people in charge.
“I have a really good relationship with Drej, I have known him since I was at the AIS. We have built a relationship over the years, so I felt comfortable going into the team with him coaching.
“I felt like Brisbane gave me the best opportunity to play and have an impact immediately.
