Kiana Brown and JTF's Secure Silver

Basketball Otago is proud to congratulate U18 Otago representative Kiana Brown on her silver medal at the 2025 FIBA Oceania Cup in Samoa!

Kiana represented New Zealand with distinction as the Junior Tall Ferns claimed the silver medal at the tournament and qualified for the 2026 FIBA Asia Cup. The team took on the best talent in the Oceania region and this is a fantastic milestone that highlights consistent development, work ethic and performances.

The BBO player pathway supports athletes to reach the international stage and we look forward to developing the next generation of athletes from our region to represent New Zealand.
