The National Basketball League of Canada is pleased to announce that London Lightning head coach Micheal Ray Richardson has earned Coach of the Month honours for January 2012.  This is the second time that Richardson has earned this honour; he was previously named Coach of the Month for November 2011. 

In the month of January, the London Lightning achieved an 8-2 record, and are on pace to not only receive a postseason berth, but to also receive home-court advantage throughout the playoffs. 

The National Basketball League of Canada is also pleased to announce that Brandon Robinson of the Oshawa Power has been named Player of the Week for the week ending January 29, 2012.  Robinson joins Morgan Lewis as the second Power player to earn this honour. 

Robinson, a 6’6”,180 –pound shooting guard, averaged 32 points per game in two contests this week, including scoring 30 in Sunday’s overtime win against the Summerside Storm.
