Matt Hodgson Biography

Matt Hodgson is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on August 2, 1991 in Ipswich, Ipswich, Australia. Matthew John Hodgson (born 2 August 1991) is an Australian professional basketball player for the Brisbane Bullets of the National Basketball League (NBL). The 211 cm centre played college basketball for Southern Utah University and Saint Mary’s College of California. He played three seasons with the Adelaide 36ers before joining the Bullets in April 2018.

In May 2011, Hodgson transferred to Saint Mary’s and subsequently sat out of the 2011–12 season due to NCAA transfer regulations. He did, however, compete for Australia at the 2011 Summer Universiade where he averaged 4.7 points, 3.6 rebounds and 16.4 minutes in seven games.

As a senior in 2013–14, Hodgson saw action in 34 games and received two starting assignments, finishing the season averaging averaged 3.3 points and 2.6 rebounds per game. He again finished second on the team for total blocks with 31.

After graduating from Saint Mary’s, Hodgson returned to Australia and joined the Frankston Blues for the rest of the SEABL season in June 2014. He appeared in eight games for Frankston, averaging 14.4 points and 7.4 rebounds per game. He later signed with Melbourne United as a development player for the 2014–15 NBL season. However, his rookie campaign was thrown into disarray when he attempted to pass medical and fitness tests prior to the start of pre-season. After failing to pass any of the health or fitness tests with United, they sent him to get it looked at and he was told his meniscus was badly torn. He subsequently underwent surgery to repair his meniscus, and began the season spending six weeks on crutches then another four weeks with his knee in a brace. He started running again in late December and re-joined the playing group for training in mid-January, with the hope of being fit by the end of the regular season and possibly playing a few minutes in the final few games. This ultimately did not happen, and Hodgson failed to appear in a game for United during the 2014–15 season.

As a freshman at Southern Utah in 2009–10, Hodgson was one of just two players to start every game during the season, and he set the SUU single-season blocks record with 64 rejections. In addition to leading team in blocks, he also led the squad with a field goal percentage of .584, was second on the team with 4.8 rebounds per game, was second in both offensive (1.3) and defensive (3.5) rebounds per game, and averaged 6.3 points per game, fifth on the team. On 9 January 2010, he scored a career-high 16 points in a loss to South Dakota State.
