Andre Drummond named Player of the Week again

There was little doubt, but the NBA made it official today -- naming Andre Drummond Eastern Conference Player of the Week for the second week in a row.

Drummond averaged an otherworldly 22 points and 24.3 rebounds and helped the Pistons to a 2-1 record. The blossoming big man shot 68.9 percent during the week and had two 25-point, 25-rebound games. Drummond becomes the first player to win consecutive Player of the Week awards since LeBron James in 2011-12.

His two 25-25 games this week gives him three for his career, which makes him the league leader for active players. The only other active players with career 25-25 games are Dwight Howard (2) and Al Jefferson (2).

Last week, Drummond won the award behind ho-hum averages of 18.7 points, 16.3 rebounds and shooting 41.3 percent.

Drummond was joined in Player of the Week honors by James Harden, Western Conference recipient of the Houston Rockets.

Lastly, I'll just leave this here.
