Tasmania JackJumpers conclude NBL26 season amid major injury setbacks

The Tasmania JackJumpers concluded the NBL26 season with a 14-19 record, finishing 6th and losing their play-in game to Melbourne United 68-82. The season was heavily impacted by a series of significant injuries occurring in January 2026.

Key roster losses included captain and Boomers centre Will Magnay, who was ruled out following an acute toe fracture; import guard Bryce Hamilton, who suffered a knee injury; and Majok Deng, who was sidelined indefinitely due to a concussion. Head coach Scott Roth noted that the team's performance was largely dictated by this casualty list.
