Worthing Thunder coach Gary Smith has paid tribute to Marvin Addy after the young English guard topped a fans' poll for the Most Valuable Player award.

Addy has impressed in his debut season in the NBL Conference. Smith said: "He has shown me he can play tough defence and offensively he knows his role now. It is a big step for him but he has made a mark here."

Thunder will be selling minibus tickets tomorrow night at Worthing Leisure Centre (6.30-7.30pm) for their play-off second lg at Solent on Saturday (8pm).
