Early life and career

Macdonald grew up in Melbourne, Victoria, and played as a junior with the Dandenong Rangers.[1] He helped the Under 18 Victoria Metro state team to the 2017 national title[2] and the Under 20 Victoria state team to the 2018 national title.[3]

Macdonald was set to join the Dandenong Rangers for the 2020 NBL1 season, but the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[6] After spending the 2020–21 NBL season training with the South East Melbourne Phoenix,[6][7] Macdonald re-joined the Rangers for the 2021 NBL1 South season.[6]

Professional career

In August 2021, Macdonald signed with the Tasmania JackJumpers as a development player for the team's inaugural season in the NBL in 2021–22.[7] He made eight appearances in his first season and was part of the JackJumpers team that reached the 2022 NBL Grand Final series.[1]

In the 2023–24 NBL season, Macdonald played in every game for the JackJumpers as a development player.[10] On 1 January 2024, he scored a team-high 23 points and hit seven of nine 3-point attempts in a loss to the New Zealand Breakers.[11][13] He was nominated for the Best Sixth Man award and was the recipient of the NBL Most Improved Player Award.[11] He helped the JackJumpers reach the 2024 grand final series, where they defeated Melbourne United 3–2 to win the NBL championship.[14] Macdonald started in game five of the series.[10] He appeared in all 37 games and averaged eight points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.[15]

Macdonald re-joined the Salties for the 2024 NBL1 North season.[16] In 14 games, he averaged 16.29 points, 5.36 rebounds, 6.21 assists and 1.5 steals per game.[17]

After being elevated to a fully rostered player for the 2024–25 NBL season,[10] Macdonald extended his contract with the JackJumpers on 2 May 2024 for an additional year until the end of 2025–26 season.[15] In September 2024, the JackJumpers played in the FIBA Intercontinental Cup.
