The Knox Raiders have announced the re-signing of 2025 NBL1 South Grand Final and Mitsubishi Motors National Finals Championship Game MVP Paige Bradley for the 2026 NBL1 South season.

Bradley played an important role throughout the season for the Knox Raiders, and was crucial in both deciders as her side took home the ultimate prize.

The 32-year-old guard's first MVP award of August came after she finished with 20 points, seven assists, and five rebounds against Geelong United in the NBL1 South Grand Final.

She then claimed MVP honours for the second time in a month when she dropped 15 points to go along with nine assists and five rebounds in the National Finals Championship Game against NBL1 West Champions the Cockburn Cougars.

Bradley joins a growing list of re-signings at Knox, including Kristy Wallace, Emily Fisher, Paige Burrows, Kiera Glover, and Leah Santomaggio, as they look to go back-to-back in 2026.
