‘NIX’ Moses Picks Up Second Molten Player Of The Month Award

And, the classy contributions of the forward continue to be recognised after he was crowned Molten BBL Player of the Month for January, having also picked up the November accolade earlier in the season.

In a busy period for the Phoenix star, he played six games and barely took a breather, which makes his superb efficiency valuation of 28.17 all the more impressive.

That number was attained via a sensational double-double of 21.3 points and 13.2 rebounds per game, with his best work coming on the offensive glass where he averaged a brilliant 5.8 each time he stepped onto the hardwood.

Moses also showcased his clinical finishing ability by averaging 61.2% in the paint

The Georgetown graduate and former NAIA National Player of the Year is continuing to have a sparkling rookie season in British Basketball and helped his team to some hugely impressive victories as they continued to consolidate a play-off spot.

Moses was often the pivotal figure in wins against defending champions Leicester Riders, Plymouth University Raiders, Manchester Giants and Birmingham Knights.

He was also unfortunate not to inspire his team to what was almost a superb success at BBL Championship leaders Worcester Wolves, with Phoenix eventually edged out in an agonising overtime loss.

Moses had to fight off strong challenges from other players for the accolade, including veteran Charles Smith of Esh Group Eagles Newcastle and also his own team-mate Reggie Middleton, who has also been a terrific driving force in the backcourt for Phoenix.
