Colleyville-born Baum initially joined the Giants for the 2021/22 season, and has since iced over 190 times in all competitions across three seasons in Belfast. During the 2023/24 season, the treble-winning Texan was appointed one of the club’s alternate captains, an opportunity with which Baum excelled, helping lead the team to the Elite League Playoff Finals Weekend in Nottingham.
Prior to turning professional ahead of the 2021/22 season, Baum spent four seasons playing NCAA hockey with both the American International College and Providence College, the latter for which he played with in the 2017 Friendship Four at The SSE Arena, Belfast, alongside fellow 2024/25 Belfast Giants re-signee, Scott Conway.
A firm fan favourite, Baum claimed a number of accolades at the Belfast Giants 2023/24 awards night, picking up Defenceman of the Year, Player of the Year, Player’s Player, and Belfast Giants MVP, rounding out a fine individual season.
