The South East Melbourne Phoenix have reportedly secured a key signing ahead of NBL26.

The South East Melbourne Phoenix have secured their first import for NBL26, Omari Moore, according to ESPN’s Olgun Uluc.

The 24-year-old Californian is a talented point guard who most recently played in Turkey with Darüşşafaka.

Moore has spent time in the NBA G League, as well as in Canada, and played under Phoenix coach Josh King briefly during his time in Turkey.

He averaged 15.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.3 steals per game across 29 appearances in his most recent campaign.

South East Melbourne has secured much of its local core, with Nathan Sobey, Jordan Hunter, Owen Foxwell, Angus Glover and DJ Mitchell all signed for NBL26, but will be looking to fill its remaining import spots in the coming months.
