Defensive Player of the Year
1. Roy Hibbert
2. Anthony Davis
3. Dwight Howard
Hibbert and Davis both had a quiet week in terms of blocks, but they still remain neck and neck as the top two candidates. Howard’s impact is still greater on the defensive side of the floor, and Houston is starting to win more ball games.
