The BBL lifted its contracting embargo on August 27, allowing teams to make direct signings after scrapping the overseas player draft. Clubs can now complete their 18-player squads without a minimum overseas-player requirement, with each team allowed to sign up to three international players.
Brisbane also made an attempt to sign Melbourne Stars captain Marcus Stoinis. The all-rounder was reportedly open to the move, but the Stars blocked the transfer because he remains under contract with the Melbourne franchise.
