Two more years of Magnay Magic

The Tasmania JackJumpers are delighted to announce big man Will Magnay will remain a JackJumper until at least the end of the 2025/26 NBL season, after inking a two-year contract extension.

A finalist in two NBL24 Awards, Magnay has found continuity this season, making a significant impact both offensively and defensively across 20 games so far in NBL24.

"I am thrilled to continue my journey with Tasmania. The support from the fans and the organization has been incredible, it’s like no other place in the world and I can’t wait to continue to grow here and bring a championship to the state” Magnay said.

The 25-year-old Centre leads the League in blocks per game (1.8), and is averaging 7.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 10.4 points per game.

The new deal will see Magnay extend his time in Tasmania through to the end of the 25/26 NBL season.

“He’s a beast, there’s no other way to say it. He’s got his body healthy, and I think we’re only just scratching the surface of what he can do and what he can achieve here” Head Coach Scott Roth said.

“I’m excited to have his contract locked away and to continue with him as a key part of the group into the future” Roth said.

Magnay’s contract extension comes ahead of the JackJumpers historic home Playoff Game 2 against Perth Wildcats at MyState Bank Arena on Monday night. 

The JackJumpers are currently 0-1 in the Playoff series against Perth.
