Kings thank two-time NBL champion Glover

The Sydney Kings would like to thank Angus Glover for his amazing service to the club, after granting him a release from the final year of his contract in NBL25.

The 25-year-old joined the Hoops Capital club ahead of the NBL21 season, going on to make 90 appearances in the purple and gold - including playing a key role in both the NBL22 and NBL23 championships.

Kings CEO Chris Pongrass wishes the Wollongong native all the best in the next stage of his basketball career.

“We can’t thank Gus enough for everything he has given our club," Pongrass said.

"He played such an important role in our success over his time with us, both on and off the court.

“Gus has overcome so many challenges in his young career, but he embraced this and blossomed into a leader, a fierce competitor and a wonderful young man.”

“As a club, we only want what is best for our players and to allow them the opportunity to continue to grow and develop.

"Whether that is here or elsewhere, it was important to allow him to explore this.

"We wish him nothing but the best and we will always have love for Gus, Kiera [Rowe] and the Glover family.

“He will be recognised as a King for life, and for the impact he had on the Kings organisation, our fanbase and the wider Sydney community”.

King #219 Glover, who averaged 5.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game during his time in the harbour city, expressed his gratitude to Sydney.

"I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone involved at the Kings over the last four years, including the ownership group, Chris Pongrass and all my incredible teammates," said Glover, who just signed with Eltham for the NBL1 South season.

"The club helped me through some tough times early on and we won two championships together.

"To the fans, I can’t thank you enough for your support over the four years.

"You guys are what make it so fun for us players when we see the venue packed - thanks Sydney.

"While I'll miss Sydney, I believe, with where my head is at, this decision to leave is the best for me at this point of my career."
