The Euroleague has been handing out “MVP of the Month” trophies for twenty years now. And until now, only three French people had been honored: Nando De Colo three times, Thomas Heurtel And Guerschon Yabusele.
The interior of the Sixers was in the spotlight in January 2022, while he played for Real Madrid. Three years later, it is the turn of Theo Maledon to receive the MVP of the month trophy for December…
It must be said that the 23-year-old playmaker was impressive over the period, averaging 21.2 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists for an evaluation of 26.8!
Already named MVP three times over the first 18 days of Euroleague, Théo Maledon above all allowed Asvel to get back into the race for the playoffs thanks to his successes against Real Madrid, Partizan Belgrade and Zalgiris Kaunas. With 8 wins for 10 losses, Tony Parker's club is not far from the Top 10.
And Théo Maledon has a lot to do with it, the player proving that he has lost none of his talent, despite several complicated years seeking a role in the NBA. Without succeeding.
