Williams and Rowe rewarded for Raiders push

Plymouth’s Paul Williams, fresh from his Big Interview with BBL Fans, is named in the BBL Team of the Week for round 26.

He put in two stellar performances in wins over Durham and Leicester, securing a double-double of 22 points and 12 rebounds against the Wildcats, and 26 points and 12 rebounds against the Riders.

Cheshire’s Matt Schneck makes his third appearance of the season following a crucial display against Guildford, picking up a double double of 17 points and 19 rebounds as the Jets displaced Milton Keynes in the play-off places.

Leicester pair Bradd Wierzbicki and Ayron Hardy are also in, with the latter continuing his charge to the MVP award at the end of the season.

The starting five is made up by Plymouth’s Anthony Rowe, who was impressive as the Raiders turned up the heat on Newcastle at the top of the BBL.
