Hostplus Head Coach, James Duncan looks forward to working with Lual  ahead of NBL23.

“We’re excited about Lual’s potential and development. His length and versatility to defend multiple positions is critical for us. He’s eager to get to work and we’re happy to have him on board with the Bullets,” Duncan said.

Lual is excited to join the Bullets roster ahead of the season and is ready to make an impact.

“I’m excited to be part of the Bullets family and looking forward to competing and getting after it every day at practice,” Diing said.

“I’m eager to learn from vets like Jason Cadee and Nathan Sobey, guys who’ve had long NBL careers and also learning from a great coach in James Duncan. I can’t wait for pre-season to start!”

Lual Diing joins Nathan Sobey, Jason Cadee, Tyrrell Harrison, Tanner Krebs, DJ Mitchell, Harry Froling and Kody Stattmann on the Brisbane Bullets 2022/23 roster.
