Championship-winning centre Majok Majok will remain with the Perth Wildcats for the upcoming NBL season.<\/p>\n

The Wildcats had a club option to retain Majok after the first year of his contract, and have elected to keep the strong West Aussie on its playing roster.<\/p>\n

Majok joined the Wildcats on a two-year contract ahead of the 2019\/20 season, and experienced championship success in his first season with his home town team.<\/p>\n

He is looking forward to the challenge of a club three-peat.<\/p>\n

“It’s going to be exciting, it’s always tough to defend a championship but that’s a challenge we’re all looking forward to,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I really had a fun year playing with the guys, being part of the Perth Wildcats organisation and playing in front of the Red Army.”<\/p>\n

Coming off a tough 2018\/19 season, Majok rejuvenated his career with the move west, playing every game in Perth\u2019s championship-winning campaign.<\/p>\n

While playing a back-up centre role, he averaged 3.3 points and 3.6 rebounds per game, impressing coach Trevor Gleeson with his hustle around the basket.<\/p>\n

“Majok was great for us, and it’s great to have another championship player returning for next season,” said Gleeson.<\/p>\n

“His rebounding, his hustle plays and his willingness to do anything we needed for the team, it’s great to have a player that works so hard for his teammates and really buys into our culture.”<\/p>\n

Majok joins Bryce Cotton, Mitch Norton, Jesse Wagstaff, Clint Steindl, Wani Swaka Lo Buluk on the Perth Wildcats roster for the next NBL season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
