Malcolm Delaney continued his dominance of the Top 16 for Lokomotiv Kuban Krasnodar as he became the first player in two season to win back-to-back weekly MVP honors in the Turkish Airlines Euroleague.

Delaney starred in Lokomotiv’s come-from-behind 78-77 victory over Anadolu Efes Istanbul with 25 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists for a performance index rating (PIR) of 30, the most by any player in Round 2 of the Top 16. Delaney made 4 of 7 three pointers and 9 of 10 free throws in another superb effort, which saw his average index rating climb to 21.4, third-best in the league. He is now second in the league in scoring at 18.1 points per game. Delaney edged CSKA Moscow guard Nando De Colo for the Round 2 honor. De Colo put together another monster game in leading CSKA to a 95-81 decision over reigning Euroleague champion Real Madrid. In scoring 28 points to tie his Euroleague career high, De Colo made 9 of 13 two-point shots and 3 of 5 three-pointer plus his lone free throw attempt. He also dished 7 assists.
