A floor general the team trusts.
Danny Shahab is a point guard who came up through the Limerick Lions system. He is a floor general and a calming influence on the team, with a cool head when games get tight. He reads the game well and has a real knack for steals, always getting a hand into the passing lanes.
He knows when to set his teammates up and when to look for his own shot, and he scores when the team needs it. Fifteen against Mhaigh Cuilinn at home. Ten in the National Cup semi-final, the night the Eagles booked their place in the final.
National Cup, Division One title, promotion to the Super League. Shahab was part of all of it, and he's still here for the next climb.
2025-26 with the Eagles
A trusted member of the double-winning squad. Shahab scored 15 in the home win over Mhaigh Cuilinn and chipped in 10 points in the National Cup semi-final as the Eagles marched to the Cup and Division One double, and on to the Super League. His 38 league steals were a team high.
