Frederick Lee Jones Lish[1] (born Frederick Lee Jones-Goldstein Jr., August 18, 1988)[2] is an American, Israeli and Thai professional basketball player. He played college basketball for the South Alabama Jaguars, when he was known as Freddie Goldstein. Born in the United States, Lish also holds citizenship with Israel and Thailand. He has played for the Thai national team.

Early life

[edit | edit source]

Frederick Lee Jones-Goldstein Jr. was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. His parents both attended Hawaii Pacific University and were intercollegiate athletes for the school's Sea Warriors (now Sharks) teams. His father was a National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) All-American basketball player.[2] Goldstein's mother was born in Thailand.[3] His father was an Israeli Jew.[4][5]

Goldstein grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,[6] where he attended Casimir Pulaski High School.[2] Following high school, he moved to St. Augustine, Florida.[7][8] After three years out of school, he realized that he "had to do something productive with my life".[7]

College career

[edit | edit source]

Goldstein enrolled at Motlow State Community College (MSCC), where he played basketball for two seasons.[6] He averaged 16.3 points per game and made 43 percent of his 3-point field goals,[9] and twice earned honorable mention as a National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) All-America selection.[10] He was the first player in Motlow school history to earn All-American honors in both of their seasons.[11][12] His 136 career 3-pointers made ranked second in MSCC history.[8]

Goldstein transferred to the University of South Alabama, and averaged 11.7 points and 2.7 rebounds a game, shooting 36.7 percent overall and 37.1 percent on 3-pointers for the Jaguars in 2011–12.[6] On January 14, 2012, against Troy, he scored a then-career high 30 points and made a school-record nine 3-pointers in a 75–60 win.[13] On February 11, 2012, he scored a career-high 33 points and tied his school record with nine 3-pointers in an 88–86 win over Louisiana–Monroe. He made the game-winner, a two-foot (0.61 m) layup for his only two-point basket, with 32 seconds left in the game.[14][15] As a senior in 2012–13, Goldstein broke his right clavicle while shooting against Western Kentucky, and was initially thought to be out for the season.[16] However, South Alabama was invited to the 2013 CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament, when Goldstein was cleared to return.[6]

Professional career

[edit | edit source]

At the end of his senior year at South Alabama, Goldstein chose to play professionally over finishing school.[3] He has played in Asia in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Mongolia.[17] He has also played in Israel, where he is a naturalized citizen.[4]

National team career

[edit | edit source]

By 2022, Goldstein had become known as Freddie Lish.[18] He joined the Thai national team for the 2021 Southeast Asian Games,[19] where he also won a gold medal with their 3x3 team.[20][21] Lish referred to playing for the country as "my dream ever since I found out my mom was born in Thailand".[3] He also played for Thailand at the 2025 FIBA Asia Cup qualification.[3] He won another gold medal in 3x3 basketball at the 2025 SEA Games.[22]
