BIO: Jarrid Frye was born in Queens, New York (USA). He attended Martin Luther High School and played college basketball at Sacred Heart University.
Jarrid Frye made his NBL debut with the Adelaide 36ers at 28 years of age. He scored 15 points in his first game.
In 2013, the 36ers secured NBL championship-winning coach Joey Wright, who took the team from two consecutive wooden spoons to the Grand Final against the Perth Wildcats. The team retained its core group of Aussie talent, including Daniel Johnson (19.2 points and 6.8 rebounds), who once again led the team in scoring, and rebounding, Adam Gibson, Anthony Petrie and Jason Cadee.
The 36ers also received a boost with Mitchell Creek and Luke Schenscher back on the court after both having their previous campaigns ended prematurely due to injury. Creek overcoming a near career-ending Achilles injury, and Schenscher undergoing elbow surgery. The club also added BJ Anthony (via New Zealand) and 2011 NBL MVP Gary Ervin (via Townsville) to pair with new import Jarrid Frye in the backcourt.
After Round 7 of the season the 36ers, led by Ervin and Johnson, were sitting in second place on the NBL ladder with a 7–2 record, which also included a 5–0 run. This included the 36ers winning both of their games against the Breakers in Auckland, their first wins over the triple defending champions since 2009. Adelaide also took down the undefeated Perth Wildcats (91–86) in front of 6,585 fans at the Adelaide Arena. Perth had been sitting on a 7-0 record prior to that loss in front of the largest Adelaide home crowd since Brett Maher’s last home game in 2009.
By December, Adelaide (9-4) had already eclipsed last season’s eight-win total.
On February 12, 2014, due to underperforming play and a ankle injury suffered before the season started, the team released Jarrid Frye (8.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists), who wasn’t able to deliver the production needed for the second-placed Adelaide outfit who were eyeing finals campaign. Adelaide replaced him with guard Rhys Carter, who had been playing in Sweden.
Adelaide would go on to reach the NBL Grand Final, losing to Perth in three games.
Jarrid Frye played one season in the NBL. He averaged 8.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 19 NBL games.
Dan Boyce is a die-hard Sydney Kings fan who grew up in Melbourne during the roaring 90's of Australian Basketball and spent far too much time collecting Futera NBL Basketball cards.

READ MOREThis week, the NBL Tribunal gave its ruling on New Zealand’s Freddie Gillespie for headbutting Sydney’s Shaun Bruce, issuing a two-game suspension (reduced to one game with an early guilty plea). The verdict follows a long history of inconsistent rulings, an issue that has needed addressing for years. As the league positions itself as a top-tier basketball competition, these inconsistencies not only affect the integrity of the game but also damage the tribunal’s reputation, leading to widespread calls for a complete overhaul. Headbutting, an act…
