The 36ers have made just one new signing in the early stages of this free agency period and have brought hometown hero Lat Mayen back to Adelaide on a one-year deal.

Mayen has joined the 36ers following two seasons at the Taipans.

Tohi Smith-Milner will continue his journeyman NBL career with Brisbane next season, after he spent just one season in NBL24 with Adelaide following stints with Melbourne and South East Melbourne.

Adelaide could possibly have made its biggest free agency win prior to the window even opening by re-signing Isaac Humphries to a three-year deal ahead of his impending free agency status. The star center joined DJ Vasiljevic in signing a long-term deal with the club.

The Brisbane Bullets have secured their core group by taking up the options on the contract of Casey Prather, Tyrell Harrison, Isaac White and Mitch Norton for next season, while the signatures of former Illawarra Hawk Deng Adel and Adelaide’s Tohi Smith-Milner have also been secured.

Adel has been a globe-trotting talent since his time in Illawarra. The former Cleveland Cavalier has played in the NBA G-League, Canada, Denmark. Bulgaria and France since his last stint in the NBL.

Smith-Milner represented Melbourne United while head coach Justin Schueller was an assistant coach at the club, and has joined Brisbane following a solitary season at Adelaide.

Nathan Sobey’s departure from the club looks to have been somewhat acrimonious. The star guard was bought out of the final year of his contract and allowed to sign with South East Melbourne.

Cairns is yet to officially secure the signing of any new player ahead of the NBL25 season, however they have been heavily linked with Sydney’s Jackson Makoi, and there have been reported whispers about their interest in Saint Mary’s star Alex Ducas.

News of Sam Mennenga’s departure to New Zealand came out prior to the opening of free agency. The New Zealand-born center was bought out of the final year of his contract with the Taipans in order to expedite the move to Mody Maor’s side.

Lat Mayen has also departed the club and signed with Adelaide on a one-year deal.

Sam Waardenburg has officially re-committed his immediate future to the Taipans after he signed a one-year contract extension that was reportedly agreed to in the early stages of the NBL24 season.

The Illawarra Hawks have been quiet on the free agency front so far, and their only official activity has been the accepting of the option in William Hickey’s contract.

Hickey was a solid contributor for the Hawks across the campaign, but starred in Illawarra’s Finals campaign – largely in the unsuccessful Playoff series against his former side, Melbourne United.

Import guard and former MVP candidate Tyler Harvey has been linked with the Brisbane Bullets, while rumours surrounding the immediate future of Gary Clark at the club are murky at best.

Melbourne head coach Dean Vickerman said in the club’s ‘free agency preview’ he believes United is in a far better position in its roster build than they were last season, but their run to the Championship Series has given them less time to secure new faces than last season.

Rob Loe has signed a one-year contract with the club following his stint as a nominated replacement last season, in a move that has gone some way to helping replace the likely departed duo of Jo Lual-Acuil Jr and Ariel Hukporti.

Lual-Acuil Jr declined his player option for the upcoming season, while the departures of Malith Machar and Zac Triplett have also been confirmed.

The New Zealand Breakers looked set to enter the free agency period with just Dane Pineau on their roster, but their early acquisition of Sam Mennenga from the Cairns Taipans represented the first new signing of the window.

Will McDowell-White turned his player option with the club down and looks set to take his talents to Europe, but the Breakers managed to secure a coup in the re-signing of Parker Jackson-Cartwright to a further one-year deal.

New Zealand-born NBA draftee and former Next Star Mojave King has returned to the NBL after signing a one-year deal with the club, while Izayah Le’Afa has joined the Sydney Kings.

The Wildcats left themselves with one local, one import and one Next Star spot to recruit ahead of NBL25, and following the accepting of the option on Tai Webster’s contract, they have signed highly-rated collegiate sharpshooter Elijah Pepper.

Pepper has lived most of is life in the United States, but counts as a local due to his being born in Shepparton whilst his father, Ryan, was playing professionally in Australia.

Club captain and legend Jesse Wagstaff has also signed a contract extension for next season, which means NBL25 will be his 16^th campaign with the Wildcats.

After announcing they would part ways with Alan Williams for the final season of his contract during the NBL24 Finals, South East Melbourne has confirmed the departures of Anzac Rissetto and Rhys Vague from the club, and have signed Jordan Hunter, Angus Glover and Nathan Sobey.

The signatures of both Glover and Sobey were secured following a buyout of the final season of their contracts at Sydney and Brisbane respectively.

Jordan Hunter’s contract reportedly holds an Asia opt-out clause, but General Manager of Basketball Operations Simon Mitchell said on NBL Now the club was expecting both Hunter and star forward Mitch Creek to be at the club for NBL25.
