PHOENIX –”After helping the Suns to a 4-0 record last week and to five straight wins overall, guard Goran Dragic was named the NBA Western Conference Player of the Week for Jan. 27-Feb. 2, the league announced today. This is the second NBA Player of the Week honor of Dragic’s career, and is his first as a member of the Suns as he previously earned the distinction for the week of April 1-7, 2012, while playing for the Houston Rockets. Dragic helped Phoenix to a 4-0 week, which included three road wins to complete a sweep of a four-game road trip as the Suns have tied a season-long with their current five-game winning streak. The sixth-year guard averaged 26.8 points on 63.9 percent shooting from the field and 69.2 percent shooting from three-point territory, in addition to posting 6.0 assists and 4.0 rebounds while playing just 29.2 minutes for the week. Dragic tied a career-long streak with four straight games with 20-plus points, matching his streak from the previous time he won Player of the Week with Houston in 2012.”
