The award is the PoW honor this season for Curry for his accomplishments over the past seven days. It was his 13th career weekly recognition. Milwaukee Bucks wingman Giannis Antetokounmpo, on the other hand, has been named the Eastern Conference PoW. That was the fourth time in Antetokounmpo?s career he?s been conferred such honor. Against the Warriors' four opponents -- Phoenix, Washington, New York and Brooklyn -- Curry averaged 36 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists. The Warriors went 4-0 in those games. Against the Wizards, Curry scored a season-high 51 points and made 11 3-pointers. Curry continued his assault on the 3-point record book. During the four games last week, he scored 30 points and made at least five 3-pointers for a new NBA record seven straight games. Entering Monday's game in Chicago, Curry is leading the league by averaging 33.9 points per game. Antetokounmpo, for his part, averaged 24.8 points, 13.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.0 blocks in four games that week while leading the Bucks to a perfect 4-0 record. In the Bucks win over the 76ers on Wednesday, Antetokounmpo tallied his 10th career triple-double, recording season-highs in both points (32) and assists (10) while tying his season-high of 18 rebounds.
