Bullets around the world: off-season update

As NBL26 heads towards its official conclusion with the Championship Series, our 2025/26 Bullets have begun their off-season commitments around the globe.

These range from Europe to South America, as well as leagues closer to home.

Jacob Holt: Young gun Jacob Holt is plying his trade in Germany with Skyliners Frankfurt of the Basketball Bundesliga. The big-man has averaged 9 points and 5 rebounds in under 16.5mpg across the last two matches.‍

‍‍Tyrell Harrison: Once Tyrell Harrison receives visa clearance, he will join up with Indios de Mayagũez of the Balocesto Superior Nacional. His second stint in Puerto Rico follows a successful first season last year, during which he averaged a double-double across 25 games.‍

Taine Murray: After a positive season as an NBL rookie, Taine Murray is heading to his homeland to play in the NZNBL with Tauranga Whai. It will mark his domestic return to Aotearoa having played for New Zealand Breakers under a development contract prior to his four years at the University of Virginia. 

Tohi Smith Milner: Tall Blacks Taine and Tohi Smith-Milner will go toe-to-toe with the latter signing for Nelson Giants. He makes the switch from Canterbury Rams where he played in last year’s edition of the league.

Sam McDaniel: The Green and Gold awaits for Sam McDaniel who made his Gangarus debut in the 3X3 Champions Cup in Thailand and heads to Singapore for the Asia Cup in April. He will be hoping to help Australia claim their fifth title in seven years, and third in a row. 

Hunter Maldonado: The Bullets’ mid-year import signing Hunter Maldonado is with Kaohsiung Aquas in Taiwan Professional Basketball League. He stuffed the stat sheet in an impressive outing against Formosa Dreamers, with 23 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 steals.

Jack Purchase: Sharpshooter Jack Purchase has returned to his native Victoria to suit up for the Melbourne Tigers. His form in NBL1 last year earned him his spot with the Bullets for NBL26, including a 55 point game against Eltham. 

Callum Dalton: Injury Replacement Player Callum Dalton is back in his home city of Logan to once again represent the Thunder in NBL1 North. He led the league for rebounds last season with 11 per game and 19.5 points to boot.
