Harris, Roy as NBA players of the week

NEW YORK, Dec. 1 (UPI) --

New Jersey's Devin Harris and Portland's Brandon Roy were selected the NBA players of the week, the league said Monday.

Harris took the honor for Eastern Division players while Roy claimed the award for the Western Division for games played Nov. 24-30.

Harris averaged an NBA-best 30 points a game in the span. He hit 53.5 percent of his shots and added 6.8 assists and 4.3 rebounds a game. He had a career high 47 points against the Suns as the Nets, 3-1 on a western road trip, won in Phoenix for the first time since 1993.

The Trail Blazers were 4-0 last week behind Roy, who averaged 20 points, 6 assists and 5.3 rebounds a game. He had his first double-double of the season with 25 points and 10 assists last Friday in a 101-86 win over New Orleans.
