We're going to switch it up a little this week. Typically, our Ballers of the Week are players who have a big game in their domestic leagues around the world. We try to really dig into different countries and competitions so that we're really going global with who we choose. But this week, we've decided to mix it up a little bit. Keifer Sykes, a point guard playing for Sidigas Avellino in Italy, had a monster performance in the Basketball Champions League (a European basketball competition), and we took notice. Sykes dropped 43 points while making 66 percent of his shots, and even dished out 7 assists as well. Even though his team came up short in the game, Sykes' performance made him an easy choice for Baller of the Week.
