Even if Ja Morant would have made a beautiful winner in the West, the NBA preferred Stephen Curry as Player Of The Week, author of a first week with 31 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists on average. All for three victories in three matches. This is the 17th time in his career that the leader of the Warriors has received this award.
In the East, it is a first since it concerns Miles Bridges, also undefeated with the Hornets with three victories. The dunker winger started the season at the right end with 25 points, 8 rebounds and 2.7 steals on average.
Also receiving votes: Nikola Jokic (DEN), CJ McCollum (POR), Ja Morant (MEM) and Karl-Anthony Towns (MIN) in the West but also Seth Curry (PHI), Spencer Dinwiddie (WAS), Kevin Durant (BKN), Tyler Herro (MIA), Zach LaVine (CHI), Evan Mobley (CLE) and Julius Randle (NYK) in the East.
