Our team’s guard Nando De Colo has become the Euroleague Round 6 most valuable player after recording the highest ranking (35) after games played on Thursday and Friday

The reigning EuroLeague MVP becomes the first player to earn single-round MVP honors twice during the 2016-17 season.

De Colo had another fantastic shooting night as he amassed 28 points and a performance index rating of 35, which was the highest among all players in Round 6, fourth-best in the EuroLeague all season and just 1 off his career high. De Colo made 3 of 4 three-pointers, was perfect on 9 trips to the foul line and had 6 rebounds.

The weekly runner-up for the MVP honor was forward Chris Singleton of Panathinaikos Superfoods Athens. Singleton posted an index rating of 34 in the Greens’ 83-75 overtime victory over Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv. Singleton set career-highs in both index rating and scoring with 26 points. He missed only 3 shots from the field and added 6 rebounds, 2 blocks and 9 fouls drawn, from which he made 9 of 13 free throws. Kruno Simon flirted with a triple-double in EA7 Emporio Armani Milan’s 105-92 win over Anadolu Efes Istanbul. The veteran swingman posted 14 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists in racking up an index rating of 29.
