Happy birthday Jared

Published on August 27, 2026

This Thursday, August 27, marks Jared’s 27th birthday. Coming off a solid first season in Europe, our forward is now aiming for the top of the French league with Paris Basketball.

Despite only arriving in the City of Light in early November, Jared has quickly managed to adapt to the highly distinctive Parisian style as well as to FIBA basketball. Having played in the NCAA, the G-League and then the NBA, our forward brought a 100 per cent North American background to his first match in our colours against Olympiacos. His solid experience at the highest level was immediately evident on the EuroLeague courts, as demonstrated by his standout moments against Real Madrid and Fenerbahçe.

Superb performances that we’ll be lucky enough to see again this season !

The Paris Basketball family wishes you another happy birthday, Jared !
