THE Round Two Men’s SBL Player of the Week has been awarded to Justin King of the Bethanie Stirling Senators.

The signing of King is proving to be a master stroke by coach Mike Ellis, as he has now earned himself consecutive POTW honours to begin the season.

King and Senators managed to hold off the dangerous Willetton Tigers in a high scoring contest, 120-111. King’s brilliance was displayed across the board, ending with 37 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals.

King is now the leading scorer in the Men’s SBL, averaging 31.3ppg and 3^rd in average steals.

With the win, the Senators improve to 3-0 while the Tigers drop to 0-2. Stirling will be looking to extend their fast start to the season as they host the Lakeside Lightning this Thursday 29 March at Warwick Stadium.
