Star on the rise Bonnie Deas has signed with her junior club, the Frankston Blues, for the 2025 NBL1 South season.
Spending the past two seasons with the Centre of Excellence in the NBL1 East, the 18-year-old will return home as a go-to scorer for the Blues.
Last season she played five games and averaged 16.4 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists on the finals team, with a season-high of 24 points. Her efforts lead her to the WNBL, signing with the Sydney Flames for this current season as an amateur player – sitting up in 12 games thus far.
Playing with the Blues since under-12s, Deas cannot wait to return home and play infront of friends and family once again.
“It was always a no-brainer for me,” Deas said.
“Frankston has done so much for me throughout my career. It’s like a family, a tribe. The atmosphere is unmatched — from the fans banging pots and pans to the unwavering support of teammates and the club. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.”
Having committed to Arkansas, Deas will unlikely play the entire season for the Blues so make sure to watch her starting from March 29th.
