Sam McDaniel has agreed to a new two-year deal to return to the Brisbane Bullets, sources told ESPN. Mutual option on the second year.

[Olgun Uluc @OlgunUluc]

McDaniel missed practically the entire 2024-25 NBL season with a shoulder injury, but is still regarded within the franchise as a pivotal part of their core. The 29-year-old is one of the league’s best perimeter defenders; the Bullets severely missed his ability to guard the point-of-attack this season.

It might happen in 1 months
It might happen in 1 year
It might happen tomorrow…

Your job is to keep going, regardless.

That inner voice telling you to chase that dream, to become what you want to become in this life?

Listen to it.

[Sam McDaniel @sam_mcdaniel30]

Internal reflection is a must.

Making change is hard.

No one’s coming to save you.

It’s on you.

Don’t just consume, create!

Life is busy, it’s one thing after another and there’s no pause button.

It’s seems counterintuitive, but the answer to catching up isn’t always speeding up.

Take the time to slow down and just, be.

Learning to cultivate self-acceptance is the first step to realising that maybe it was never meant to be perfect.

Let go of the outcome.
Enjoy the process.
You’re right where you’re supposed to be.
Keep going.

Things you can control:
- How you speak to & treat people
- How you choose to react
- Your effort and attitude

Things you can’t control:
- What others say
- What others do
- External outcomes & circumstances

My mind wants productivity, improvement, work.

More, more, more.

Meanwhile right in front of me are many of the things i once wished for.

I’m working on maintaining drive, ambition and focus, whilst keeping in mind:

If i can’t slow down and enjoy this moment,

Will i ever?

One day you’ll wake up and realize the things you thought mattered so much doesn’t matter at all… the best currency is getting good with yourself.

@BrisbaneBullets guard Sam McDaniel has fast become a key piece of Justin Schueller's side. But his on court success is being driven by the love and support of family off the court and it's making all the difference.

Keep going.
