Hapoel Tel Aviv players Antonio Blakeney and Elijah Bryant shared the EuroLeague MVP award for Week 8, marking an unprecedented achievement for the club. The duo, who both registered a performance index rating of 35, led their team to a dominant 118-88 victory over Anadolu Efes on Wednesday.
This shared honor makes them the third pair from the same team to win the award since the EuroLeague's inception in the early 2000s. They follow in the footsteps of Mirsad Türkcan and Alphonso Ford of Siena in 2002, and Luka Dončić and Gustavo Ayón of Real Madrid in 2017.
With this latest recognition, Hapoel Tel Aviv has made EuroLeague history by becoming the first team ever to secure four MVP of the Week awards after only eight rounds of play. The team's MVP recipients this season include Elijah Bryant (Week 2 and 3), Zach LeDay alongside T.J. Shorts (Week 7), and now Bryant and Blakeney (Week 8).
