Mathiang Muo (born 3 April 1987) is an Australian-Sudanese professional basketball player who last played for the Goldfields Giants of the State Basketball League (SBL). The 6'5" swingman graduated from Charleston Southern University in 2013 before joining the Perth Wildcats of the NBL. Due to injury, he managed just 15 games for the Wildcats over two seasons, and also had a stint with the SBL's East Perth Eagles in 2014. ==Early life== Muo was born in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum, a city in the heart of the Sudanese civil war in the 1990s. To help himself and his family survive, Muo worked as a domestic cleaner, earning three dollars a day at the age of just 10 years, leaving home for two-month stints before returning to spend a week with his family. In 1998, at the age of 11, Muo, along with six siblings and his mother, Elizabeth, escaped to Egypt as refugees. The family enrolled in a refugee lottery while in Egypt and waited two years to find a new destination. Eventually, Muo's family were given the chance to come to Australia on humanitarian visas, moving to Sydney, where he and his family were able to settle down. Upon arrival in Sydney, Muo began formal education at the age of 13. He spent the first two years in extensive English training and enrolled in high school.〔 While living in Sydney as a teenager, Muo starting playing basketball for the first time in a local park. As he began to love the sport and realising his natural talent, Muo decided to take the game seriously, partly as a way to keep himself out of trouble.〔 Muo's talents were recognised by a local basketball training centre called Next Level Basketball. Muo was introduced to coach Edward Smith and his game began to take off. A few years later, Next Level began taking one trip a year to showcase tournaments in the United States as a way to promote and expose the better players to college programs. It was a trip to Las Vegas when Muo was 18 that changed his life forever after his performances drew plenty of attention. In 2005, Muo attempted to finish high school in Florida at Florida Prep but the school went bankrupt before he could graduate.〔 He subsequently moved to The Winchendon School in Boston but left when he realised the coach, who had links to the University of Massachusetts, was telling other colleges not to recruit him. He then moved to The Patterson School in Lenoir, North Carolina where he finally graduated high school.〔
