Timberwolves adds strong leadership and aggression to their backcourt with latest commitment

PRINCE GEORGE— Another player will be wearing green and gold this season with the commitment of Isaiah Bias to the UNBC Timberwolves mens basketball roster.

The former Vancouver College varsity captain just completed a final season with the Fighting Irish, Irish, led by coaches Mer Marghetti and Ryan Shams. During the regular season Bias averaged 17.2 points-per-game along with 5.3 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 3.4 steals and 0.4 blocks. The playoffs saw him increase his points per game to 23.3 while averaging 6.3 boards. Bias has served as captain in each of his previous two high school seasons and in 2023-24 was named Team Most Valuable Player and captured all-star honours at the Burnaby South Tournament, the Sea-to-Sky Tournament and the B.C. Catholics Tournament. At club level, Bias suited up for DRIVE Basketball and coaches Karn Sharda and Pasha Bains.

“I’m a quick,up-tempo guard that loves to push the ball up the court and attack the hoop,” revealed Bias. “I like distributing [the ball] to, because when I get my guys going I can push myself to a different level.”

Bias attended the Timberwolves Spring ID Camp last April and became the third player to commit to the program after that meeting. He adds “Committing to UNBC was an easy decision. Something that struck my attention was the program’s culture and core beliefs. They play very unselfish basketball and that’s something I want to be a part of. I really like UNBC’s facilities. The Northern Sports Centre is definitely a place I see myself being at every day.”

Hot off the Timberwolves Bronze medal in 2024 Canada West Playoffs, Bais’s addition to the Timberwolves is part of Todd Jordan’s efforts to re-tool the TWolves with speed, work-ethic, and ‘love for the game’. Jordan says that the latest commit exudes all those qualities.

“I’m extremely excited to be adding Isaiah to our team,” says Coach Jordan. “He’s a shifty playmaking guard that will bring a leadership dynamic to our roster. He is a good athlete, but more importantly he’ll bring positive energy to what we were doing and contribute right away to our team culture. I know a number of our guys expressed that they loved playing with him at ID Camp, and we are excited to have him come in at the end of the Summer.”
