Trueman in talks with Cairns
Taranaki Mountain Airs forward Jeremiah Trueman is being courted by the Cairns Taipans.Not quite blockbuster news or a signing, but it's a quiet Friday.
The former Breakers and Tall Blacks basketballer confirmed yesterday he was in talks with the Taipans and another Australian NBL team.
"Things are looking promising," said Trueman, who is hopeful of securing a playing contract for the Australian league starting in September after being cut by the New Zealand Breakers last month.
"I had a good chat with Taipans head coach Aaron Fern and they're really interested in having me up there," Trueman said yesterday. "I'm also talking to another team, but I can't say who."
Any other rumours around Cairns?
