LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) — Wyoming guard Justin James has been named the Mountain West Conference player of the week.
James recorded double-doubles in wins against Eastern Washington and Texas Southern this past week.
It is the first time in his career he has earned the league award and the second time this season a Wyoming player garnered the accolade after senior forward Hayden Dalton was named Mountain West player of the week on Nov. 13.
For the week, James averaged 20.5 points per game and averaged 11 rebounds per night. James has recorded double-doubles in four of his last five contests scoring 20 points or more in each game.
