Raised in Melbourne, Australia, the 6-7 forward excelled scholastically on a talented roster at Prolific Prep in California. Even while battling injuries, he averaged 11.5 points and 7.0 rebounds as a senior, a three-star prospect who brings huge upside to the Banks.
I love Mawot. He's plays with high energy. He's 6-7 and a really good defender, he's college ready defensively. He can also shoot the basketball from three very well. He's really learning how to do some different things. I'm excited about his coach-ability.Head Coach Steve Pikiell
I felt like Rutgers was the best fit for me. The coaching staff and players have treated me like of their own. It felt like home to me. I love playing for Coach Pikiell, he's a genuine dude. He's been honest since day one.Mawot Mag
