Bucci, Stewart Once Again Performers of the Weekend
A regular feature here on Hoopsfix, it’s time to recognise a number of standout individual performances from this past weekend across all EBL National Leagues with our ‘Performers of the Weekend’;
Tees Valley Mohawk Ralph Bucci once again showed why he is one of the best players in the National Leagues this weekend after dropping 87 points over two games. He had 28 in a 75-48 drubbing of Eastside Eagles on Saturday, before dropping 59 points against London United on the following day in a 115-105 victory!
John Stewart (1993) equaled his career high with a 55 point performance, whilst adding 8 assists and 9 boards, as his Sheffield Junior Sharks murdered Stockport Falcons 151-31.
Martyn Gayle had a 34 point effort, gunning 6 of his 11 three point attempts as his Derby Trailblazers dispatched of Leicester Warriors 100-90 in EBL Division 1 Men’s action.
Elliot Sentance (1994) had a 37 point performance, helping his Leicester Warriors to a 92-71 victory over Manchester Magic in U18 Men North Premier action.
Tyrell Isaacs (1995), in what a few are calling the best U16 performance they have seen in years, had a 29 point-15 rebound performance as his Westminster Warriors U16’s beat Solent Kestrels 70-55 in South Premier action.
Fellow Westminster Warrior Ed Lucas (1993) had 30 as his Warriors beat Brentwood 98-78 in U18 Men South Premier action.
Special shout out also needs to go to Lee Norton who had 90 (WTF?!) in a local league game. Yes it wasn’t National League, but 90 points in any game is straight impressive! On top of that, before Christmas, Jason Swaine had two huge back to back games-dropping 48 vs Durham 2, followed by 60 at Middlesbrough on the Sunday to help Huddersfield Heat to two wins.

Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
