The EuroLeague MVP (Most Valuable Player) of the Round, previously known as the EuroLeague MVP of the Week, is an award of Europe's premier level basketball league, the EuroLeague, that is given to the best player of each round of the season. Each game on the EuroLeague's season schedule is considered to be an individual round. In order to win the award, a player must have the highest PIR stat among all players of the round's winning teams. Only one game is taken into account in determining the award, as each individual game on the schedule is counted as one round.
The award began with the EuroLeague 2000âÂÂ01 season.
The award is not voted on by anyone. It is determined by a statistical formula, called either the Performance Index Rating, or the Performance Index Ranking (PIR) by the EuroLeague, and also known as either Evaluation or Valuation, in some European national domestic basketball leagues.
The Performance Index Rating also includes the Blocked Shots Against stat (the number of field goal attempts that a player has blocked). The stat's formula is (Points + Rebounds + Assists + Steals + Blocks + Fouls Drawn) - (Missed Field Goals + Missed Free Throws + Turnovers + Shots Rejected + Fouls Committed). The Performance Index Rating stat is not commonly used by the NBA or FIBA. The Performance Index Rating (PIR), is not the same stat as the NBA Player Efficiency (EFF), or the John Hollinger Player Efficiency Rating (PER) or Game Score stats, although it is often mistaken to be.
Prior to the EuroLeague 2011âÂÂ12 season, the award was given to the player that had the round's highest PIR score. However, starting with the EuroLeague 2011âÂÂ12 season, the award's criteria were changed; with the award to go to the player from a winning team, who had the round's highest PIR score. So, a player could have the league's highest PIR score for that round, but not win the round's MVP award, if his team lost their game that.
