Monyyong excelling near rim

University of Arkansas at Little Rock junior forward Ruot Monyyong has been on a tear over the past month.

The 6-10, 190-pounder has recorded six consecutive double-doubles, and he has seven in his past eight games. During his double-double streak, Monyyong is averaging 15.3 points and 13.5 rebounds per game, and he's a key reason why the Trojans are off to a 5-2 start in Sun Belt Conference play.

"I knew we were going into conference play, [and] I knew everybody had to pick it up," Monyyong said Tuesday.
