I Will Be Tiger For Life: Von Hofe

Melbourne Tigers star Felix Von Hofe has pledged his commitment to the club for the rest of his NBL1 career.

Melbourne Tigers star Felix Von Hofe has pledged his commitment to the club for the rest of his NBL1 career.

Von Hofe played his junior basketball with the Tigers and had joined the club for the 2020 NBL1 South season, before the campaign was cancelled due to COVID-19.

As Von Hofe balances playing NBL1 with his slew of media obligations, he has told NBL1’s The Fast Break he will no longer be moving clubs.  

“I will play for the Melbourne Tigers in NBL1 for as long as I can before commitments (take over), sometimes Saturday’s can get a little bit loaded these days in this industry,” Von Hofe said.

“I will be lifelong Tigers from here on out”

Von Hofe played for the Kilsyth Cobras last season and averaged 7.9 points and 5.0 rebounds per game.
