MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Memphis' senior point guard Kendric Davis was named American Athletic Conference Player of the Week Monday for his performances last week on the hardwood.
It marks his second AAC weekly honor in three weeks as a Tiger and the seventh of his career.
The fifth-year point guard averaged 17.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.0 steals per game in wins over Little Rock and No. 11 Auburn.
He made 12 field goals over the two games and went a perfect 9-for-9 from the free throw line, while swiping four steals.
Davis had his biggest game of the season on the brightest stage Saturday, going for a season-high 27 points on 9-of-19 shooting with a career high-tying nine rebounds and six assists in leading the Tigers to an 82-72 win over No. 11 Auburn in Atlanta.
Memphis is back in action Tuesday at 8 p.m. in Tuscaloosa to battle No. 8 Alabama on ESPN2. They will then return home to face Texas A&M at 6 p.m. in a Blue Out at FedExForum on Dec. 17.
