DeMar DeRozan named Eastern Conference Player of the Week

DeMar DeRozan just continues to look like an MVP candidate so far this season.

On Monday, DeRozan was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week for Week 7 as the Bulls went 3-0 including Saturday’s impressive win on the road against the Brooklyn Nets.

DeRozan averaged 30.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 4.0 assists while shooting 59% from the field.

The Bulls currently hold a record of 16-8 as they sit a half game back of the Brooklyn Nets for the top seed in the East. DeRozan is a key part of Chicago’s success so far this season and if his production continues alongside  winning games, look at him to be a strong All-NBA candidate as well as in the MVP discussion.
