In Episode 45 of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with Mal Watts—CEO of the Brisbane Bullets—to talk about leadership, rebuilding a legacy club, and how basketball is booming in Australia’s fastest-growing market.
Mal opens up about taking over a team in need of a reset, why bringing Brisbane’s basketball legends back into the fold mattered, and how moving the Bullets to a new home was backed by pure data, not just gut feel.
He shares lessons from his varied career in tech, rugby, and hospitality—and why “all-in” is the only mindset if the Bullets want to reclaim their place at the top.
From high-performance centres to flame-throwers on game day, Mal talks innovation, community engagement, and the long game of building not just a winning team—but a club Brisbane can be proud of again.
🏀 A deep dive into sport, business, leadership—and why there’s always room for one more great team at Brisbane’s top table.
