Grant Hill named 2010 NBA Sportsmanship Awardee

Grant Hill gets to receive his 3rd Joe Dumars trophy after being voted by his fellow players to this year's NBA Sportsmanship award. The Phoenix Suns player got the nods of his fellow NBA players as being the one who exhibited the ideals of sportsmanship on the court the most this season.

His career got a second wind when he signed up with Phoenix after an injury-plagued stint with the Orlando Magic. Before his time in Orlando, he was a superstar in Detroit but never lead the Pistons deep into the postseason.

He also received this award in 2008 and in 2005 as a player for the Orlando Magic.

Hill is known as a nice guy in the NBA even in his early days. He appeared in a Fila commercial where former Pistons Bad boy Bill Laimbeer is turning him into "bad" or a tough player.
