Ra’Shad James Named Week 7 Player of the Week July 25, 2023 In a must-win week for I-Can All Stars (this isn't a typo, Roc spells it like this), coach Roc Johnson knew just who to call. The 6'2 Ra'Shad James hasn't been a fixture of the 2023 I-Can bid, but with the team 1-4 headed into Sunday's game against the 0-5 BB4L, this was their chance to get a much-needed win on the board.Â
JUSTIN DAVIS NAMED WEEK 8 PLAYER OF THE WEEK July 23, 2024 Dawg Pound has impressed in their second Drew League summer, and now, they've got their first-ever Player of the Week in Justin Davis. Counting up 32 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 assists Saturday afternoon against Surgeon, Davis distinguished himself as one of the newest big dawgs of the Drew League. Coming off a stout 100-99 win over Problems in week 7, Dawg Pound has proven themselves to be a force to be reckoned with. Going from an 8-seed in their first year to one of the top 6 teams in the league is no small feat (they are currently in a three-way tie in Gilbert Wilburn division, with the potential to land anywhere from #2 to #4, depending on how Cheaters/Elevate shakes out this week). But they've barreled through some of the Drew's top competition, only losing two of their eight games so far (the second by only 3 points), to living up to their billing as all "pitbulls, no puppies." Davis has been a huge part of that, ending two of their wins as highest scorer, and consistently contributing not just scoring, but also stalwart defense and keen-eyed playmaking. While Dawg Pound arguably has no alpha, they've been moving as a pack, and their team-first mentality is paying off.
Ryan Carter Named Week 2 Player of the Week June 21, 2023 With 36 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in the 1949 victory over Undisputed, the week 2 Player Of The Week is Ryan Carter.
