For the second consecutive month, Luka Bozic is named MVP after achieving an average of 30.3 in player efficiency rating during this period, the highest mark of the season so far
Coviran Granada continues fighting for survival and, in that battle, Croatian power forward Luka Bozic is playing a primary role. His performances have been decisive in this final stretch of the season, where he is showing an extraordinary level.
In this way, he closed the last month with an average efficiency rating of 30.3 points that leads him directly to the designation as April MVP. For the second consecutive time after winning it in March, Bozic achieves this designation which also marks the second of his career in the Liga Endesa.
During this period, the Granada team achieved a 2-2 record, and curiously, it was in one of those two losses when the Croatian player delivered his best performance. It was in the matchup on the road against UCAM Murcia, where he finished with a 33 efficiency rating after scoring 25 points, shooting 6 of 9 from two-point range (67%), 0 of 1 from three-point range (0%) and 13 of 15 from the free throw line (87%). Additionally, he grabbed 7 rebounds, dished out 1 assist, recorded 1 block and drew 12 personal fouls.
His second-best performance in this closing month, in which he also surpassed 30 in efficiency rating (32), came against Bàsquet Girona (Matchday 25), although on this occasion he was also unable to help his team secure a victory. He contributed 19 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 1 block and 6 personal fouls drawn.
And if we talk about the two victories achieved by Coviran Granada in this month of April, the numbers from an immense Luka Bozic are also more than noteworthy. On Matchday 28, against MoraBanc Andorra, he ended up being the best player on the court, reaching 29 in efficiency rating thanks to his 15 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 9 personal fouls drawn.
The team coached by Arturo Ruiz also won the Andalusian derby against Unicaja and once again Bozic was the player of the game. Despite posting his lowest efficiency rating of this month of competition, he came close to 30 points again. On this occasion it was 27, which he reached thanks to his 15 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist and 9 personal fouls drawn.
Without a doubt, this end of season is proving brilliant for a Luka Bozic who in this month of April has averaged 18.5 points per game, with a 57% success rate from two-point range, 50% from three-point range and 86% from the free throw line. Additionally, he recorded 7.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.5 blocks per game, reaching the aforementioned 30.3 in efficiency rating that once again earns him this designation as MVP of the month.
