NBL Round 12 Player of the Week
The very second he got that tenth assist, you knew it was coming.
Corey 'Homicide' Williams of the Melbourne Tigers has been named the National Basketball League’s Player of the Week for Round 12 of the iiNet NBL Championship after recording a rare triple-double in his team’s 87-66 defeat of the Adelaide 36ers.Also close were Nevill (23 and 5 in a win), Hinder (18/7/2 in a win against table-topping NZ) and Redhage (17.5 PPG), Lisch (14 PPG) and Weigh (16.5 PPG) in a 2-0 road-trip.
Williams reached double-figures in three key statistical categories, notching 12 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists as the Tigers won back-to-back games for the first time this season with a home win over the 36ers at the State Netball Hockey Centre (AKA ‘The Cage’) on Sunday.
And here's everyone else:
Other players in consideration for the award included Mark Worthington (Gold Coast), Kevin Braswell (New Zealand), Eric Devendorf (Melbourne), Eddie Shannon (Adelaide), Aaron Grabau (Cairns), Alex Loughton (Cairns), Gary Wilkinson (New Zealand), Ira Clark (Gold Coast), Gary Ervin (Wollongong) and Julian Khazzouh (Sydney).
How did Ervin still make it despite 15 points, 4 TO, shooting 5/19 FG and losing to Adelaide? I thought Forman (17 points to lead the Hawks in scoring that game) was a toss-up if you wanted to include a Hawk, but Ervin did not have a great game at all, right?
