424 NBL game veteran Jason Cadee will return home and sign with his junior club, the Bankstown Bruins, for the 2025 NBL1 East season.
The recently retired NBL guard spent the past six winter seasons in Queensland, playing for the Brisbane Capitals during the QBL-era and the Gold Coast Rollers since the introduction of the NBL1 North.
With the Rollers, Cadee was widely regarded as one of the best players in the conference. Winning the 2022 Championship and Finals MVP, the 2023 regular season MVP, leading Gold Coast to the Grand Final in 2023, making three First-Teams and scoring 52 points in a single game.
The Former Sydney King hasn’t played for the Bruins since 2016, when he led the team to the championship in the then-Waratah League.
Upon signing, Cadee explained he cannot wait to return to where it all started.
“The last time I played in the East, it was called the Waratah League, and we won it all with a group of Bankstown juniors,” he said.
“I’m excited to be back, aiming to help the Bruins make the playoffs again while also connecting with the junior Bruins”
Cadee joins Hayden Blankley, Naaman Hightower and Andre Wolford for the 2025 roster.
The NBL1 East starts March 29th. Stay up-to-date with all the latest signings via the Roster Tracker here.
