Jeremy Lin highlights NBA Players of the Week
Basketball Betting Lines
02/13/2012 -
New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New York Knicks sensation Jeremy Lin was
further acknowledged for his surprising play on Monday, earning Eastern
Conference Player of the Week honors for games completed through February 12.
Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook was named the Western
Conference Player of the Week.
Lin has been an unexpected revelation for a maligned Knicks team of late.
Without the services of All-Stars Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire, the
undrafted point guard led New York to a 4-0 record last week, averaging 27.3
points, 8.3 assists and 2.0 steals over that span. He became the first player
in NBA history to record at least 20 points and seven assists in each of his
first four starts.
The Harvard graduate highlighted his unprecedented rise to prominence with a
38-point performance in a win over the Lakers on Friday.
Westbrook averaged 30.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.5 steals last
week, helping the Thunder to a 3-1 mark. He registered a career-high 15 field
goals in a loss to the Kings on Thursday.
Other nominees were Dallas' Dirk Nowitzki, Detroit's Greg Monroe, Golden
State's Monta Ellis, Miami's LeBron James and Dwyane Wade and Oklahoma City's
Kevin Durant.
