Derrick Walton wins Australian League Finals MVP
In his first year in the league, he goes first team all NBL, wins a title and receives the equivalent of the Finals MVP.
Congratulations Derrick.
great players do great things. I have to believe a few years living in Australia enriches your life. Hail.
Senior Derrick Walton was just unstoppable. Id slot that season between freshman Trey and sophomore Trey. This is great news bring home all the MVPS DWalt!
Agreed! Imagine Dug in 3 years, as a senior. Could be interesting...
Dug finally broke down the D last night on a beautiful dish to Hunter. That to me was the chefs kiss on the season. I have no worries about his shot but can he get us 5-6 easy baskets a night just like that? Point guard play like that is what turns an 18 win season into a 22 win season. Very excited to see him for the next few seasons.
G'day, mate! Well done, Derrick. Glad he's found such success down under. Hopefully, this will be his springboard to get back in the NBA.
Got to be pretty happy for Derrick. There are worse places to play basketball than Sydney.
google machined an article about the game. won the 5th game of a 5 game series in front of a record crowd. the article mentions andrew gaze, and some of us will remember he was the seton hall sharp shooter we beat in '89 to win the title.
down most of the game, tied after 3, and won it going away.
Is “Hungry Jack’s” Australian for Burger King?

Indeed. Fun Fact.
So great! Congratulations, Derrick.
Good on ya!
Derrick Walton Jr. is a MVP type player. He makes his teammates better. I was at the Big Ten Tournament in 2017 and proudly chanting MVP when he was announced.
Congrats to Derrick.
He was so awesome at Michigan. We were really spoiled having PGs like Burke, Walton and Simpson. I think Dug can be up there too.
Congrats! I hope he has a great career where ever he plays.
Derrick, buy a couple of old diesel land cruisers and ship them back to the states when you come back. You'll thank me later.
Congrats!
