IMPRESSIVE performances from two Worcester Wolves stars last weekend have earned them places in this week's BBL Team of the Week.

The match-winning efforts of Richie Gordon and Sherrad Prezzie-Blue were recognised when they were named in the side after both playing major roles in last weekend's BBL Championship victories over Mersey Tigers and Durham Wildcats.

Gordon, who last month was named the BBL Player of the Month for December, was in impressive form throughout both matches and picked up an incredible tally of 30 points and 20 rebounds against the Wildcats on Saturday.

Prezzie-Blue also registered another appearance among the league's best performers this week after directing his side around the court in both games.

A personal tally of 26 points over the two games including six three-point baskets as well as a number of assists and rebounds were enough to stand the American out from the crowd.
