Euroleague Round 16 MVP: Sasha Vezenkov, Olympiacos

This is Vezenkov's 12th MVP of the Round award, only trailing Shane Larkin (17 times) and Nando De Colo (16)

A stunning individual performance in an outstanding team win allowed Sasha Vezenkov of Olympiacos Piraeus to earn Euroleague Round 16 MVP honors with a PIR of 38.

Vezenkov was everywhere in his team’s 87-77 home victory over Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade. He had 27 points on 6-of-9 two-pointers, 2-of-3 three-pointers and 9-of-11 free throws, as well as 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 8 fouls drawn to get a PIR of 38, the highest in this round and his highest PIR this season. This is Vezenkov’s 12th MVP of the Round award, only trailing Shane Larkin (17 times) and Nando De Colo (16). Vezenkov has earned MVP of the Round honors for the third time this season, having shared this accolade with Neal Sako of LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne in Round 2 and exclusively in Round 3.
