THE Sydney Kings are expected to sign SEABL star, Garrett Jackson, sources told foxsports.com.au.

Speculation of the addition began to brew when the 6’7 forward was seen at Kings practices, and the expectation, now, is that the team will sign him to fill their final spot, sources said.

Jackson, 25, last played for the NW Tasmania Thunder in the South East Australian Basketball League (SEABL), averaging 22.9 points, 8.7 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game in 2016.

The former Saint Mary’s Gael has also spent some time with the Melbourne United, signing with the team as an injury replacement for Hakim Warrick during the 2015-16 season.

Jackson holds NBL career highs of 14 points and five rebounds, both of which he achieved against the Sydney Kings in November, 2015. In his six games for United, he averaged 5.2 points and 2.2 rebounds per game.
