Defensive Player of the Year award named after Damian Martin
Nice work Luke.
Damn that's a lot of silverware. Plus add three Good Hands Award awards however they looked like.

I went back over the last 11 seasons:
Damo finishes in the good hands race award (if it still happened):
NBL20 - 9th
NBL19 - 1st
NBL18 - 2nd
NBL17 - 4th
NBL16 - 5th
NBL15 - 1st
NBL14 - 1st
NBL13 - 3rd
NBL12 - 2nd
NBL11 - 4th
NBL10 - 2nd
Enjoy.

NBL20: Damo would have come 9th in the good hands award NBL20 with a good hands score of 3.29.
NBL19: Damo would have last won the Good Hands award in NBL19 (4.87 good hands score).
He would have beat Jason Cadee (3.86 good hands score) and Kevin Lisch (3.59 good hands score).
NBL18: If we go back three seasons, Damo would have come second in the good hands award with a score of (4.11). He would have lost to Travis Trice who would have scored 4.22.
NBL17: Damo would have come 4th with a score of 3.59. Cedric Jackson would have won the award with 4.78.

those arguing over whether or not the league had been thinking it for ages or not.
does it matter?
The right name is on the trophy now

The National Basketball League Good Hands honour was awarded annually to a player in the National Basketball League (NBL) between 1990 and 1999. The award was determined by adding assists and steals and subtracting the player's turnover count. After 1999, the award was discontinued.
Anyone got the stats for this if applied to the 2000s? Assists plus steals minus turnovers. D-Mart could have won a few of those as well.


Great to hear - it's good to see that Damo's name will still be with the league for years to come.

Very fitting, and a great way to honour a player who was never flashy, or a high scorer, but have 100% every minute he was on the court.
