TDL Summer 2016 End-of-Season Awards

Position: PG
Seasons: 3

PREMIER DIVISION MOST OUTSTANDING PLAYER

SHAMEL ARASMO (METTA WORLD WAR)

Statistics: 22.1 ppg, 43% FGs, 5.6 rpg, 4.4 apg, 2.4 spg

Season Notes: Make it two in a row for Arasmo, but this one isn’t quite as fulfilling as the spring season. Metta World War didn’t win the chip, but the loss was also a testament to how important he is to the team. He didn’t play in it. MWW missed Arasmo’s league-high 22.1 ppg, his ability to get to the rim, and penchant for hitting big shots in crunch time.

 Runner-up: (F/C) Young Song (SPA) 18.3 ppg, 59% FGs, 9.7 rpg, 3.2 apg, 1.2 spg

Position: PF
Seasons: 6

Wat Misaka Defensive Most Outstanding Player

KAREEM MERRICK (METTA WORLD WAR)

Statistics: 8 rpg, 1.7 spg, 2 bpg, 2.9 fpg

Season Notes: No player could effectively guard positions 1 through 5 like Merrick, and he did so night in, night out. At this point in his basketball life, he’s dedicated himself to one side of the basketball, but nobody played that side better than Merrick this season.

 Runner-up: (G/F) Chaz Thomas (MWW) 8 rpg, 2.7 spg, 1.2 bpg, 2 fpg

Position: PF
Seasons: 3

The Sam Lo Hustle Award

YOUNG SONG (NYK SPARTANS)

Statistics: 18.3 ppg, 9.7 rpg, 3.2 apg, 1.2 spg

Season Notes: What Song brings in skills and talent is not obvious to the casual observer. He has what you call a “knack,” or a “nose for the ball.” Song always seems to find himself in the right place at the right time, and he has a better touch around the rim than maybe anyone we’ve ever seen.

 Runner-up: (C) Sonny Tudeme (BKA) 5.3 ppg, 13.9 rpg, 1.4 spg, 1.4 bpg

Position: SF
Seasons: R

Spot Dessert Bar Most Outstanding Rookie

NICK ANNACONE (METTA WORLD WAR)

Statistics: 15.5 ppg, 45% FGs, 6.7 rpg, 1.2 apg, 1 bpg

Season Notes: Annacone lit teams from every spot on the court by mid-season, making MWW seem impossible to guard. Nobody was more electric this summer than when he found the zone. Degree of difficulty wasn’t in the vocab. Just as important, he was a sneaky good defender.

 Runner-up: (G) Ryan Kennedy (ASN) 18.1 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 1.6 apg, 1.9 spg
