Surprisingly, in the third week of the college basketball season, this is R.J. Barrett‘s first Freshman of the Week Award as he led the Blue Devils to victory in wins over the Indiana Hoosiers and the Stetson Hatters this week.
Last Tuesday against the Hoosiers, Barrett accumulated 22 points, nine rebounds, two blocks, an assist, and a steal.
Barrett made nine of his eighteen field goal attempts against Indiana, making two of his four shots from three point range in the Duke 90-69 victory.
The Canadian native was not satisfied after another big win on the year and he kept his motor going against a less than stellar Stetson team.
