The Swansea City loanee netted three goals in three starts for struggling Rovers to ease them away from the drop zone.
Northern Irish frontman Donnelly, 22, is on loan with Rovers until the end of the season.
Southend United's Ben Coker, Andy Drury of Luton Town and Wycombe Wanderers goalkeeper Matt Ingram were the other nominees for the prize.
