Isaías, who featured in 25 regular season games, said he was honoured to have won the award.
“I’m very proud to receive this award,” he said. “I must thank my teammates for their support this season and I know I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without them.
“Unfortunately we could not progress further this season into the Finals, but it was a good learning experience for us and I am sure we will do better next season.”
For yet another superb season in the engine room, our influential Captain has now claimed the Aurelio Vidmar Club Champion Award a record three times and has also gone back-to-back after taking out the award last year.
