Marshall won the Most Improved Trophy for the Adelaide 36ers, announced at the club’s gala event at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Friday night.
The Pioneers re-signed the emerging star late last year, with the 23-year-old set to take the court for his third season with the Mount Gambier side.
Marshall continued to improve during his second season with the Pioneers in 2022, becoming a key player, averaging 21.46 points per game with a 50.25% success rate shooting from the field, together with more than eight rebounds per game.
His performance earnt him recognition as the team’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) for the 2022 Season.
Marshall is currently in his second year as a contracted development player with the Adelaide 36ers and has significantly increased court time with the 36ers from 2021-22 season, highlighting his continued improvement.
The Castec Rural Pioneers and the OneFortyOne Pioneers will start their 2023 NBL1 South campaigns in April.
