The Adelaide 36ers are reportedly close to landing one of the biggest free agents in the market, Bul Kuol, on a two-year deal.
According to ESPN’s Olgun Uluc, Kuol, who played a role in the Sydney Kings’ NBL26 championship, is on the verge of penning a multi-year deal with the Sixers.
While Kuol, who has played five seasons in the NBL, is currently rehabbing from a knee injury, the South Sudanese international will provide a massive defensive presence to the 36ers, who will attempt to go one step further in NBL27.
Bul Kuol is in advanced talks on a new two-year deal to join the Adelaide 36ers, sources told ESPN.

This report follows Uluc linking fellow King Torrey Craig to the Sixers, as well as two-time NBL champion Dejan Vasiljevic and Adelaide working through a contract release.
As it stands, assuming Vasiljevic leaves the City of Churches, Mike Wells’ side has six-time MVP Bryce Cotton, Zylan Cheatham, Flynn Cameron, Isaac Humphries, Isaac White, and Ben Griscti as contracted players next season.
