Jordon Crawford made his NBL debut with the Tasmania JackJumpers at 33 years of age. He scored 13 points in his first game.
The Tasmania JackJumpers bolstered their roster by signing 5’6 point guard Jordon Crawford, whose explosive scoring ability, leadership, and playmaking skills added a dynamic edge to the team.
“We’re extremely excited to welcome Jordon to the JackJumpers. He’s a great leader, a dynamic scorer and someone we feel the people of Tasmania can get really excited about and another player that they will love to get behind,” Co-CEO Jorrick Chivers said upon Crawford’s arrival in Australia.
After a stellar debut season with Tasmania, Crawford re-signed with the JackJumpers. Reflecting on his experience, he expressed his admiration for the club and its fans: “I loved Tasmania. Obviously, winning the Championship was incredible, but the fans made it so much more enjoyable. And all the hard work put in by everyone in the club—the guys, coaches, and our admin staff. It was an easy choice to want to come back and run it back for another season,” Crawford said.
The dynamic guard played all 37 games in the JackJumpers’ Championship-winning season, delivering consistent performances by averaging more than 16 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 3.2 assists over 30 minutes per game.
Crawford provided fans with numerous spectacular moments throughout the season. However, his unforgettable performance in Game 5 of the Championship series stood out. In the do-or-die game, Crawford erupted for 32 points, including a remarkable 27 points in the first half, solidifying his place in JackJumpers history.
Jordon Crawford currently plays for the Tasmania JackJumpers and has played 65 games in his NBL career. He has averaged 16 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 3.7 assists since entering the league in 2023.
