    PORTLAND, Ore. – Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy was named the NBA’s Western Conference Player of the Week, it was announced Monday by the NBA.

    Roy guided the Trail Blazers to a 4-0 week, including road victories against the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings, and home wins vs. the Kings and Toronto Raptors.

    The fourth-year Trail Blazer and three-time NBA All-Star averaged 27.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.25 steals while shooting 56.7% (38-67 FG) from the floor in four starts. He led Portland in scoring three times, rebounds once and assists twice in four games last week.

    Roy, 25, netted 41 points (14-22 FG), eight rebounds, three assists and two steals in a 110-105 comeback win at Golden State, marking his fifth career game of 40-plus points (including playoffs).

    Other nominees for the honor were Houston’s Luis Scola, Phoenix’s Amar’e Stoudemire and San Antonio’s Manu Ginobili. Milwaukee’s Andrew Bogut was chosen as the Eastern Conference Player of the Week.

    His fifth time winning the award, Roy also took home Western Conference Player of the Week honors for the weeks ending April 12, 2009; Nov. 30, 2008; Dec. 16, 2007 and Dec. 9, 2007.
