All Carmelo did was average 37.7 points, 7 boards and 4.3 assist per game this week to start the Denver Nugget’s 2009 season off at 3-0. That includes back to back 40+ point efforts against Portland (41) and Memphis (42).
With this outstanding scoring tear to begin the season, Carmelo is now in good company with Alex English as the only players in team history to score 30+ in the first 3 games of the season. This is Melo’s 9th player of the week honor.
Congratulations Carmelo, it is a pleasure to watch you play!
