Wagstaff to captain Wildcats again in 2021/22

Jesse Wagstaff will captain the Perth Wildcats again in 2021/22.

It will be Wagstaff’s second season as skipper, after taking the reins ahead of the 2021 campaign.

Wagstaff is a six-time NBL champion going into his 13^th season at the club.

With 388 games to his name, he’s the second most-capped Wildcat of all-time.

The ninth captain of the Perth Wildcats will once again have Mitch Norton by his side as vice-captain.

It will also be Norton’s second year in that position.

The Wildcats starting point guard is a two-time champion in his fourth year at the club - and is entering the first season of a fresh three-year contract.

This year, the pair will also be joined in an extended leadership group by three-time MVP Bryce Cotton and veteran guard Kevin White.

The positions were determined by a team vote while on their pre-season tour of Tasmania.
