The “Players of the Week” trophies have fallen and it is Luka Doncic and Pascal Siakam who are honoured.
The Mavericks point guard, who is in his eighth career “Player of the Week” trophy, averaged 31.5 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists over four games, for three wins.
In the East, Pascal Siakam has only played three games (two wins), but his stats speak for him: 38.7 points, 10.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists! His exit to 52 points against the Knicks necessarily weighed in the balance. This is the fifth time in his career that the Cameroonian has won this trophy.
The two players, appointed for the first time this season, succeed Nikola Jokic and Donovan Mitchell.
