PORTLAND basketball referee Jeremy Morton’s journey has continued on its upward trajectory over the past couple of weeks, with two big announcements – his selection to the NBL1 development panel as well as to referee the upcoming under-18s national championships next week.

Morton said the call-up to referee NBL1 – Australia’s second-highest level of basketball – came about as a result of his success in the Big V last season.
