Madut signs for JackJumpers

Senior National Team Player, Junior Madut has signed to the Tasmania JackJumpers ahead of the 2023/2024 Hungry Jack’s NBL Season.

The 26-year-old joins the JackJumpers on a one-year deal deal with a mutual option for the NBL25 season, bringing versatility, length, and athletic prowess.

A proven dynamic scorer, Madut is thrilled to secure an opportunity with the JackJumpers and prove himself in the NBL after one season with Phoenix in NBL23.

“I feel like my strengths will really complement the guys already there and the strong roster they’re putting together.

It feels like they’re building something really special and I’m excited to immerse myself in the program and be part of that” Madut said.

Madut was born in South Sudan and moved to Australia at six years old, growing up in Sydney’s West. He began his college career with Eastern Florida SC before transferring to the University of Hawaii and returned to Australia in 2022 to begin his professional career.

We want to wish Junior all the success with his new professional club.
