Jesse Thompkins III Award: Nick Blatchford

Paul & the MVP

There are not many chances that people get to play under the bright lights in the historical Madison Square Garden. So when that chance comes around, it's not time to fold under pressure - especially in a championship game. Someone who took that challenge and stepped up to the plate was rookie Nick Blatchford of Uptempo. Nick has been knocking down trey bombs all season long and may have been the NRF's best three-point shooter. Last night, Nick was 4-for-6 from the floor and 3-for-7 from beyond the arc, finishing with 17 points and three assists. Add that to the W, and Blatchford earned himself the Jesse Thompkins III Award. Congrats!
