PLAYER OF THE WEEK WATCH - Week 11
PLAYER | TEAM | WHY | STATS | |
---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | PER 32.99 | ![]() Eastern 1-3 | The Wiz continue to lean heavily on their leader and legend, Lebron James, as he again averaged over 40 points a game this week. He also upped his rebounding to 11 a game this week and just showed his unstoppable self. The Wiz will go as far as LeBron demands! | 40.5 PTS 10.8 REB 4.5 AST 1.5 STL 1.5 BLK |
![]() | PER 39.36 | ![]() Eastern 1-3 | Tatum exploded this week on the back of a stunning 54% from deep, well above his 35% on the season. The result was 44 points a game instead of his season 36 and the Celts loved it. His type of uptick is cause for a reward and the Celts hope their man can keep it up! | 44.3 PTS 4.5 REB 3.3 AST 1.3 STL 1.0 BLK |
![]() | PER 30.82 | ![]() Eastern 1-3 | As good as LeBron is, the Wiz wouldn’t be where they are without his reliable offsides in Devin Booker. Book averaged 36 points last week, up from 26 on the season, and it might have been a little because Jrue was missing. He played all the minutes he could handle and nearly matched them with 1 points per minute. | 36.5 PTS 4.3 REB 3.8 AST 1.0 STL 0.3 BLK |
![]() | PER 35.03 | ![]() Eastern 2-2 | Wemby was somewhat stunning this week averaging 34 points and 16 rebounds, but was uncharacteristically low on blocked shots at only 1.5. His ultimate game was an OT loss to the 76ers where he dropped 58 points and 20+ rebounds. Absolutely amazing from a C in this league! | 34.0 PTS 16.5 REB 2.3 AST 0.8 STL 1.5 BLK |
![]() | PER 37.15 | ![]() Eastern 3-1 | KD upped his scoring a little this week to 37 a night, up from 34, but didn’t lift much else. The Raptors star has found a way forward with Steph now and the Raps are loving it. It’s a super hard combo to contain and KD has always been elite even if he’s no longer a SG. | 37.5 PTS 6.3 REB 2.0 AST 0.5 STL 1.8 BLK |
![]() | PER 33.59 | ![]() Western 2-3 | Dejounte is gone so James can play, but this week he still “only” averaged out to his season average of 32 points a game. His assists were definitely up though and he’s getting all the ball he can handle, which is what James likes. Now just get Embiid back to help him and give him more room! | 32.2 PTS 4.2 REB 6.0 AST 0.4 STL 0.6 BLK |
![]() | PER 38.35 | ![]() Western 2-2 | Davis was asked to be the main man with no Butler last week and he mostly delivered topping 30 points a night. He is going to miss some time himself soon, which is a shame, but he’s a top 5 NSL guy every year when he’s playing and the Wolves are going to miss him a lot! | 30.8 PTS 9.0 REB 3.0 AST 1.3 STL 0.5 BLK |
![]() | PER 28.67 | ![]() Western 3-1 | Nikola was actually down a little this week on his season numbers but 19 points and 16 rebounds in 29 minutes is still elite from your big man. The award won’t go this way, this week, but the Joker is always in or close to these nominations, for a reason. | 18.8 PTS 15.5 REB 4.5 AST 1.8 STL 0.0 BLK |
![]() | PER 37.48 | ![]() Western 4-0 | The Kings are streaking and it’s all based around Klemm finding the right formula for his all offence all the time team build, and Herro is the jewel in that crown. He dropped 31 points a game last week but in only 28 minutes a game as the Kings ripped their way to a 10 game win streak! | 31.0 PTS 3.5 REB 4.0 AST 0.5 STL 0.0 BLK |
![]() | PER 40.07 | ![]() Western 3-0 | Trae Young, hello? Trigger Trae averaged 52!! Points per game last week when he was averaging “only” 28 on the year. He also tossed out 8 assists a game and this might be one of the best weeks from a small PG ever (not named Dame). | 52.0 PTS 2.7 REB 8.3 AST 1.0 STL 0.0 BLK |
