Clinton Steindl (born 15 March 1989) is an Australian professional basketball player for the Tasmania JackJumpers of the National Basketball League (NBL). After attending the Australian Institute of Sport, he moved to the United States in 2008 to play college basketball for Saint Mary's. In 2012, he returned to Australia and joined the Cairns Taipans, where he spent two seasons. In 2014, he joined the Townsville Crocodiles, where he spent another two seasons and won the NBL Most Improved Player in 2016. After stints in Belgium and Greece, he joined the Wildcats in 2017, going on to win his first NBL championship in 2019. He has also represented the Australian national team.
Early life and career
Steindl grew up in Mackay, Queensland, and attended secondary school in Brisbane at Anglican Church Grammar School. In 2007 and 2008, he attended the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) in Canberra, where he played for the program's SEABL team.
For the 2008–09 season, Steindl moved to the United States to play college basketball for Saint Mary's. In 122 games over four seasons, he made 70 starts and averaged 6.2 points and 2.4 rebounds in 20.6 minutes per game.
As a senior in 2011–12, Steindl began the season in the starting lineup, but had to miss three games in the middle of the season after injuring his ankle against Missouri State. When he returned, his starting spot had been claimed. Left to come off the bench, Steindl operated as a 3-point specialist and defensive stopper. A mid-February injury to starting guard Stephen Holt saw him miss the remainder of the regular season, leading to Steindl moving back into the starting lineup. In the five games during Holt's absence, Steindl averaged 12.2 points per game. In three of those five games, he led the Gaels in scoring. His roommates as a senior were fellow Australians Matthew Dellavedova and Mitchell Young.
