Boston Celtics newcomer Isaiah Thomas earned Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors during his first full week with the team.





The Celtics celebrated Isaiah Thomas' Player of the Week award on social media.



Thomas averaged 22 points (third in East) and 6.5 assists (seventh in East) while helping Boston to a 3-1 record that included a win over his former team.

The Celtics acquired Thomas from the Phoenix Suns at the trade deadline in exchange for Marcus Thornton and a first-round pick.

A snapshot of Thomas' week from the league:
• Feb. 23 @ Phoenix: Scored 21 points and added seven assists in a 115-110 win over the Suns.

• Feb. 25 vs. New York: Tallied 19 points, seven assists and six rebounds during a 115-94 win over the Knicks.

• Feb. 27 vs. Charlotte: Posted a season-high 28 points and added seven assists in a 106-98 win over the Hornets.

Thomas is Boston's first Player of the Week honoree since Jared Sullinger won the award last February. Jordan Crawford also won the award in December of last season.

Celtics coach Brad Stevens was nominated for Coach of the Month for February, but the award went to Indiana's Frank Vogel.

Boston went 7-4 in the month of February, Stevens' first winning month with the Celtics.
