“We’re excited to continue to build our team with another Lower Mainland product,” said Glen Hanlon, Giants General Manager. “Justin is a power forward who plays a strong 200-foot game. He’s a player who we have tracked throughout the season. We’re really pleased with his progression, and we’re thrilled to welcome Justin and his family to the Giants.”
