Former Kentucky and California big man Marcus Lee and his Tasmania JackJumpers won the NBL championship in Australia this morning.
The JackJumpers defeated Melbourne 83-81 in game 5 of the series to claim their first ever title.
Lee was ruled out of the finals series last week after suffering a torn MCL. He averaged 6.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game in 34 games for the team prior to the injury.
