Crossword Genius

No scarcity, some get award (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oscar

'award' is the definition.
(Oscar is an example)

'no scarcity some' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word.
'OSCAR' is hidden within 'no scarcity'.

'get' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "Film-prize statuette" , "Hollywood statuette given as annual award" , "Some players are given this" , "- - Peterson, pianist" , "Cinema award" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
