The exciting New Zealand guard started his professional career with Melbourne United and looked right at home on the back of spending five years in college.

Growing up the son of Kiwi basketball legend Pero who up until recently remained coach of the Tall Blacks, he followed his father's footsteps into the NBL having signed a three-year deal with United.

Spent the previous five years splitting his college career firstly with two seasons at DePaul University and then the last three at the University of California, Riverside, ahead of beginning his NBL career with Melbourne.

Came into his first NBL season having played for New Zealand at the 2023 FIBA World Cup and then showed exciting signs of what the future will hold as a guard in the NBL as someone quick, athletic and capable of scoring, shooting and being a pest defensively.

The 24-year-old played in 31 games for United for 3.7 points and 2.1 rebounds in almost 10 minutes before a standout NZ NBL season with the Taranaki Airs where he played over 31 minutes for 16.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists while shooting the three ball at over 42 per cent.
