DALLAS — After guiding Sam Houston to a three-game win streak last week, senior Lamar Wilkerson has been selected as the Conference USA men's basketball Player of the Week, the league office announced on Monday.
Wilkerson began his week with a monster game to open the Trojan Classic at Troy, Alabama on Monday. He scored a career-high 25 points and grabbed six rebounds in an 88-86 overtime victory over host Troy.
The guard from Ashdown, Arkansas, followed that with 15 points including his second consecutive game with three 3-point baskets, in an 86-68 dismantling of Grambling on Wednesday. Wilkerson also scored in double figures in limited action with 10 points when the Kats returned home to knock off Paul Quinn 78-61 on Saturday at Johnson Coliseum.
For the week, Wilkerson averaged 16.7 points and 4.7 rebounds per game and made seven 3-pointers as Sam Houston improved to 4-3 on the season.
