Hugh Greenwood (born 6 March 1992) is an Australian former sportsman who played Australian rules football and basketball. Greenwood was a promising under-16 footballer, but opted to attempt a career in basketball in 2008, moving to the United States in 2011 to play college basketball for the University of New Mexico. He returned to Australia in 2015 and joined the Perth Wildcats of the National Basketball League, but abruptly switched codes to sign with the Adelaide Football Club of the Australian Football League (AFL) as a category B rookie in September 2015. He moved to the Gold Coast Suns in 2019 and then North Melbourne Football Club in 2022. He retired from the AFL on August 2024 after 121 senior games across the Crows, Suns and Kangaroos.
