The Illawarra Hawks are proud to announce the signing of exciting young prospect Johny Narkle as a development player for the upcoming NBL26 season.

Narkle, a dynamic guard, brings a unique blend of athleticism, energy, and raw talent to the Hawks roster. Known for his defensive intensity and playmaking ability, Johny has shown tremendous promise through his junior career and recent showings at national development camps.

“We're thrilled to bring Johny into the program,” said Illawarra Hawks General Manager of Basketball, Mat Campbell.  “He’s a driven young man with a great attitude, and we see real potential in what he can bring to our team both now and in the future.”

Narkle has been turning heads with his growth on and off the court. His signing continues the Hawks’ long-standing tradition of developing emerging Australian talent through the NBL's Development Player pathway.
