BRAMPTON HONEY BADGERS SIGN NBA FORWARD TRENTYN FLOWERS
The Brampton Honey Badgers of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) announced Wednesday that they have signed former NBA Draft Selection Trentyn Flowers.
After spending the last two years back-and-forth between the NBA and the G League, Flowers is taking his talents to Canada, adding a major boost to the Honey Badgers ahead of the second half of the CEBL season. He is most recently coming off a successful season in the Chicago Bulls organization this past season, where he got into two games with the Bulls in December and played 14 games with the Windy City Bulls, their G League affiliate, where he averaged 12.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 27.9 minutes.
“Trentyn is a valuable addition to our team,” said Honey Badgers General Manager and Vice President of Basketball Operations Jermaine Anderson. “He’s an exciting young player who brings versatility and valuable international experience to our roster. We’re looking forward to having him on our team and welcoming him to the Honey Badgers family.”
Flowers has been playing professional basketball since 18 years old, as the Matthews, North Carolina native decided to play all the way to Australia instead of going to college. He has eight games of NBA experience under his belt between the Bulls and the Los Angeles Clippers, and had his best year of his career in the 2024-25 season, where he averaged 17.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and just under two assists per game with the San Diego Clippers, LA’s G League affiliate.
Trentyn is an exceptional young talent with tremendous upside. At just 21 years old, he's already gained valuable experience competing against professionals in Australia, the NBA G League, and the NBA. What stood out to us was his size, athleticism, versatility, and his desire to continue developing. We believe our environment is a great place for him to grow, and we're excited to welcome him to Brampton and help him take another step in his career.
The Brampton Honey Badgers will return home after a long road trip to face the Ottawa BlackJacks on Thursday, July 2, followed quickly by a quick rematch with the Scarborough Shooting Stars on July 5 at the CAA Centre. Get your tickets
