Trayce Jackson-Davis turned things up for Indiana last week, guiding the Hoosiers to a pair of key wins in helping the team get back on track.
Early in the week, Jackson-Davis came up with a big road performance with 35 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks in a win over Illinois. That performance included a brilliant 15-for-19 shooting effort from the field.
To follow that up, Jackson-Davis played 39 minutes against Michigan State with 31 points in a home victory. He rounded out that double-double with 15 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks to help Indiana improve its win streak to 3 games.
Jackson-Davis finished the week with game averages of 33 points, 12 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 4 blocks while shooting 64% from the field. He has since earned Player of the Week honors from ESPN, the Naismith Awards and March Madness for his hot streak.
