NCAA Basketball: Western Carolina and Purdue with latest Players of the Week
By Bryan Mauro
Another week is in the books and that means it is time for another Busting Brackets Player of the Week award. There were a lot of huge performances. There was a 40-point game and a lot of near 40-point games. This is the time of the year when players are starting to separate themselves from the pack when it comes to the cream of the crop in the NCAA. It is also the time of the year when teams start relying on their stars to win them games which is why there have been so many huge performances over the last week.
The winners of the award this week are going to be very familiar to every college basketball fan. The winner of the mid major award is a player who has already won the award multiple times this year but keeps having huge games and huge weeks for a team that is one of the best teams in their conference.
The winner of the Power 5 award is a player that every college basketball fan is familiar with. He plays for one of the best teams in the country and is one of the best big men in the game. These players should need no introduction because they have been introduced to the fans in a big way but let's get into it with the mid-major Player of the Week.
