The Otago Nuggets have signed Melbourne-born forward Geremy McKay for the 2021 Sal's NBL season.
The 200cm big man represented his nation in the Australian U19 team at the 2015 FIBA World Champs and had a call up to the South-East Melbourne Phoenix in the ANBL last year.
The 24-year old will line up alongside Sam Timmins, forming a formidable front line for the 2020 Showdown champions.
"I am really excited to be joining the Nuggets for the 2021 Sal's NBL season, especially after the exceptional season the team had in 2020. I can't wait to get over to New Zealand and begin to compete and do whatever it takes to win some basketball games,” said McKay.
