Like every Monday, the NBA has just elected the two best players of the past week. Los Angeles and Brooklyn are in the spotlight today, as Anthony Davis and Mikal Bridges take the lead.
If the Lakers are on the rise as the NBA Playoffs approach, it is thanks in particular to Anthony Davis. Already huge during the absence of LeBron James, AD continues to chain the performance of madness at the beginning of April: 38.7 points average, 11.7 rebounds, 2 blocks, more than 65% success in shooting and 80.6% in free throws, here are the stats of the Lakers superstar in his last three games. Under his leadership, Los Angeles finished with three wins and can legitimately believe in the Top 6 of the Western Conference one week from the end of the regular season. We just hope that AD will remain healthy until the end, he who gave us a new scare once morest Wolves in recent days.
In the Eastern Conference, it is therefore Mikal Bridges who has been rewarded by the NBA, he who has displayed his talent more than ever since his arrival in Brooklyn at the trade deadline. Author in particular of 42 points once morest Atlanta last Friday, Bridges dropped a week in 33 points – 6 rebonds – 4 passes at 50-40-90 in shooting percentages. Kevin Durant figures for the one who was just transferred once morest KD a few weeks ago. Again, those big individual performances came in wins, with the Nets staying on a three-game winning streak to solidify their sixth-place finish in the East.
Other nominees in the West include Brandon Ingram (Pelicans), Domantas Sabonis (Kings), Stephen Curry (Warriors) as well as Devin Booker and Kevin Durant (Suns). In the East, Donovan Mitchell (Cavaliers), Jayson Tatum (Celtics), Jalen Brunson, Immanuel Quickley (Knicks), Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jrue Holiday (Bucks) also had a solid record.
