Kiwi Sharpshooter Back in Pro Ranks After Solid LBSU Freshman Stint
Max De Geest, a 6'3" New Zealand guard, flashed legit potential as a true freshman at Long Beach State in 2019-20, playing 31 games with 5 starts and draining 24 threes at 33.3%—good for 4th on the team—before shifting to pro ball with the Canterbury Rams for the 2025 Sal's NBL season. Battle-tested from Youth Olympics and U19 World Cup, his international poise, smooth shooting stroke, and athleticism make him a dynamic perimeter threat; no major injury flags, high basketball IQ, and gritty competitor vibe scream 'versatile glue guy' ready to light it up for any squad needing spacing and hustle.
