The Perth Wildcats are excited to announce the signing of Australian wing Todd Blanchfield to a two-year contract.<\/p>\n
At 200cm and 95kg, Blanchfield is a versatile, dynamic scorer with the ability to get hot from beyond-the-arc.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old said he\u2019s thrilled to be joining the reigning NBL Champions.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s obviously a really good group of guys and the organisation is top notch, as good as you\u2019re going to get in the NBL, so it\u2019s pretty cool to be a part of that,\u201d said Blanchfield.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone wants to achieve a championship in their career, and that\u2019s what I\u2019m chasing, and Perth have done that quite a lot in the last few years!<\/p>\n
\u201cOn the court, I like to shoot the ball, I\u2019ve obviously become known as a three-point shooter, but I also like to put some heat on the rim. Defensively, I like to be vocal and loud so my teammates know I\u2019ve got their back.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m only 28, so everyday I\u2019m looking to get better and improve in some way, and ultimately push for that championship. I just want to come in and do what I need to do to help this team push for that.\u201d<\/p>\n
While playing for the Illawarra Hawks over the last two NBL seasons, Blanchfield has averaged 13.6 points per game at 44.9% from the field, plus 4.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.9 steals.<\/p>\n
On New Year\u2019s Day this year, he piled on a career-high 35 points on the back of seven triples against the Adelaide 36ers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
