One of the most awarded players in the NBA has been honored again. LeBron James has been named the league's Western Conference Player of the Week.

Making the announcement Monday, NBA officials said James received the honor for games played from March 2nd through Sunday.

During that time, the Lakers forward averaged 29 points, 10.3 assists, 7.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks.

It's the third time James has been named Player of the Week this season. The last Los Angeles player to do that was Kobe Bryant during the 2012-2013 season.
