Megan was incredible with how she stayed connected with both myself and a number of our players. It\u2019s given us a lot of time to get to know each other and when the opportunity presented to sign her this year, we jumped at the opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qHNikTCWs3k\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Mullings has enjoyed a successful professional career to date that includes stints in Germany, Luxembourg, Finland, Romania and Australia. She most recently played for BC Pharmaserv Marburg in the German DBBL.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Speaking from her home in Arizona, Mullings said,\u201d I am so excited for the opportunity to be a Spectre. Losing to Nunawading in my last game with Ringwood in 2019 cut deep, but I admired the team then and as I\u2019ve gotten to know the girls over time, I\u2019m ecstatic to be a part of the program now.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NBL1 is such a different kind of league. It\u2019s fun, it\u2019s engaging, it\u2019s exciting and I love the way Australia really got around that inaugural year. I\u2019ve ben watching all of the developments the past two years and I am loving the growth. It\u2019s going to be a truly competitive season and I am looking forward to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Es-4v2b9xCM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Mullings will play an integral part not just on the court with the Spectres but also in the community, taking a lead role with the Forest Hill College Basketball Academy and Nunawading Basketball Development Programs.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am really looking forward to getting to know the Nunawading Basketball community.
