Morgan Yaeger (born 18 April 1998) is an Australian professional basketball player.
Yaeger debuted in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) with the Adelaide Lightning during the 2015–16 season.[1] She re-joined the Lightning for the 2020 WNBL Hub season in Queensland.[2]
During the 2021–22 WNBL season, Yaeger played 14 games for the Sydney Uni Flames. She joined the Townsville Fire for the 2022–23 WNBL season but an injury saw her sit out the majority of the championship-winning campaign.[3]
Yaeger played college basketball at the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon, for the Ducks in the NCAA Division I.[4] She played 32 games in 2016–17 but then missed the entire 2017–18 season, redshirting due to a back injury. She returned to play 25 games in 2018–19 and 18 games in 2019–20.[5]
Between 2014 and 2016, Yaeger played in the Premier League for the Forestville Eagles. Between 2021 and 2023, she played for the Southern Tigers in the same league, now known as NBL1 Central. In 2024, she joined the Rockhampton Cyclones of the NBL1 North.
Yaeger first represented Australia in 2013, at the FIBA Oceania Under-16 Championship in Melbourne. She would then go on to represent Australia, at the 2014 FIBA Under-17 World Championship in the Czech Republic.[6]
