Kendall joined the club at the beginning of our second season as an assistant to head coach Simon Mitchell.
"I have built some great friendships and memories, and am grateful for every opportunity. I have loved every challenge and have learnt so much. I'd like to thank all the players, staff (both on and off the court), ownership and fans for making it so enjoyable to come to work each day. It has been a pleasure coming home and representing a NBL team where I grew up," Kendall said.

CEO Tommy Greer thanks Kendall for his contribution to the Phoenix.
"We want to thanks Luke for his contribution to the club," CEO Tommy Greer said. "And wish him all the best for the future."
