BIO: Campbell Blogg was born in Melbourne (VIC) and began playing basketball as a junior with the Sandringham basketball program.
NBL EXPERIENCE
Campbell Blogg made his NBL debut with the Melbourne United at 20 years of age. He went scoreless in his first NBL game.
After a forgettable season where United attempted to regroup after losing starters Jo Lual-Acuil to China and Jack White and Matthew Dellavedova to the NBA, United welcomed back Lual-Acuil and Dellavedova for NBL24 and added NBA prospect Luke Travers to build out a roster very similar to the team which narrowly missed out on a grand final berth in 2022.
Looking to run things back, import Ian Clark (via Adelaide) was signed as the team’s only import, filling the team’s bench scoring role that Scotty Hopson had previously occupied while young, up and coming talent Tanner Krebs (via Brisbane), Kyle Bowen, Flynn Cameron and Blogg, who chose to sign a one-year deal with United over playing college in the US.
“Six months ago I was committed to a junior college in America, but when the opportunity to stay in Melbourne and be with United as a training player came up, I couldn’t turn it down. I think that was the best decision I’ve ever made.” said Blogg.
In his sixteenth NBL season, Chris Goulding (16.9 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists) delivered one of the best seasons of his career on the back of playing with the Boomers at the FIBA World Cup in 2023 and fighting for a spot on the 2024 Olympic team.
In addition to Goulding leading the way in scoring, United were unguardable for most of the season with any of the team’s starters able to take over games. Lual Acuil (14.5 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks), Dellavedova (12.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 6.3 assists) and Clark (13.6 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists) kept the scoreboard ticking over while swiss army knife Travers (11.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 1.9 assists 1.1 steals and 1.3 blocks) filled the stat sheet in almost every other category. Blogg saw minutes in only 8 games for the season and averaged 0.9 points per game.
Melbourne’s success saw the team playing in front of sell-out crowds almost every week with their biggest win at home came against Brisbane in December where they won by 35 points and thanks to some lights out shooting from Goulding (7/9 from beyond the arc) and forcing the Bullets to shot a woeful percentage at the other end (3/26 from the perimeter).
Melbourne faced Illawarra in the semifinals, where both teams lit it up, the scoreboard displaying 100 points in consecutive playoff matches. Tied at a game apiece, United survived a huge scare in Game 3 to advance to the Grand Final series.
United delivered a blowout win in game one (104–81) behind Goulding (22 points on 7-12 shooting) and Lual-Acuil (20 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks). The JackJumpers evened the series at home (77-82) thanks to big games from Jack McVeigh (16 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists) and Milton Doyle (13 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 assists). Shea Ili (20 points on 8-12 shooting) led United in the loss.
Dellavedova (21 points and 8 assists) delivered one of his best games of the season in a game looked like easy victors until a miracle shot from McVeigh (18 points and 12 rebounds) resulted in Melbourne losing back-to-back games for the first time this season.
In game four, United rode the hot hand of Ian Clark (18 points and 4 rebounds) to even the series at two wins a piece (88-86).
Tasmania’s Jordon Crawford had struggled through the majority of the playoffs, but was the epitome of the JackJumpers never-say-die attitude, scoring 19 points in the first quarter and finishing the game with 32 points as the JackJumpers came from behind to win at John Cain Arena (83-81). It was the equal-third highest tally by any player in a title-series game during the 40-minute game era, and ended Melborne’s championship hopes.
Campbell Blogg currently plays for the Melbourne United and has played 10 games in his NBL career. He has averaged 1.4 points, 0.4 rebounds, and 0.1 assists since entering the league in 2023.
