FC Bayern Munich has completed the signing of Justinian Jessup on a two-year deal.
Jessup (1.98 meters, 27 years old) displayed his talent in the BKT EuroCup with ratiopharm Ulm last season, posting 13.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.3 steals per game across 18 appearances. He was tied for the sixth most three-pointers made in the 2024-25 EuroCup with 43.
"I'm really looking forward to playing at the EuroLeague level for the first time. It's the best competition with a lot of big, historic clubs, and Bayern does really well every year," Jessup told Bayern's official club media. “This was my third year in Europe and it's definitely the right time for me to take on the EuroLeague challenge.”
Prior to playing for Ulm last season, Jessup started his professional career with the Illawarra Hawks (2020-22) in the NBL, then played for Zaragoza (2022-23) before returning to the NBL with the New Zealand Breakers (2023-24). He will now continue his European adventure with Bayern, which will allow him to taste EuroLeague basketball for the first time.
