Both Edwards and Poirier finished with a 29 PIR, the highest in this round. Edwards erupted for 30 points on 4/7 2PT, 6/10 3PT and 4/5 free throws as Bayern beat Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade 100-82. He also posted 1 rebound, 4 assists, 1 steal and 7 drawn fouls.
This is the second time that Edwards has been the MVP of the Round, having also earned this honor in Round 23 of this current season.
Poirier, meanwhile, had an 18-point, 13-rebound double-double as Efes defeated Virtus Segafredo Bologna 89-68. He reached those 18 points after shooting 7/11 on 2-pointers and 4/5 from the line. Poirier also added 1 steal, 1 block and 4 fouls drawn.
This is the fourth time that he has taken home MVP of the Round honors, having previously done so in Round 12 of the 2017-18 season, in Game 2 of the 2019 playoffs and Game 2 of the 2022 playoffs.
In third place this week is Zvezda’s Joel Bolomboy, who had a monster night on the glass in his team’s loss at Bayern.
Bolomboy, who had a 28 PIR, grabbed 19 rebounds – the most of any player this season – of which 12 came on the offensive end, also a EuroLeague season high and the second most all-time. He netted 12 points on 6/8 2PT, made 2 assists, blocked 1 shot and drew 1 foul.
