About Jermaine Turner

  • Jermaine Turner (born July 29, 1974) is an American-Irish former professional basketball player who spent the majority of his 17-year career playing in the Irish Super League.
  • Turner first arrived in Ireland in 2000 following a season of college basketball with Dowling College.
  • Over 17 years, he spent time with Dungannon, Tralee, Ballina, Tolka Rovers, UCD Marian, St Vincent's, and Killester.
  • He also had stints in Switzerland, Finland, Romania and Spain. Turner was instrumental in leading St.
  • Vincent's and Killester to championship glory during his time with both teams.
  • In 2006, Turner was named the Most Valuable Player of the finals weekend after leading St Vincent's to their first Superleague title since 1994.
  • In 2010 and 2011, he led Killester to back-to-back league championships as well as back-to-back National Cup finals—winning in 2010 and earning MVP of the final, and losing in 2011 to UCD Marian in what Turner describes as his "biggest regret".
  • In his time away from Ireland, Turner enjoyed what he describes as his most enjoyable experience outside of Irish shores: winning the Swiss Division Two league title and MVP honors in 2005 with Vacallo.
