Home is where the heart is: Te Rangi returns to NZ

The New Zealand Breakers are keeping their promise to bring local talent back home, with the return of Reuben Te Rangi.

The 30-year-old has signed a two-year deal with the club he last represented during the 2015/2016 season.

Since his previous stint with the Breakers—where he won championships in 2013 and 2015—Te Rangi has played for the Tasmania JackJumpers, South East Melbourne Phoenix, and Brisbane Bullets.

He brings with him the experience of 358 NBL games, averaging 4.9 points and 2.4 rebounds per game.

In 2019, Te Rangi was honoured as both the NBL's Best Sixth Man and Most Improved Player.
