Syracuse men’s basketball: Judah Mintz named ACC Rookie of the Week

Syracuse Orange men’s basketball’s Judah Mintz was named the ACC Rookie of the Week on Monday, making it the first time this season that a member of the Orange secured an individual conference recognition.

This past week, Mintz averaged 13.0 points, 7.5 assists, and 3.0 steals per game as Syracuse defeated each of Oakland and Georgetown by double-digits. Against the Hoyas, Mintz recorded his first career double-double with a 16-point, 10-assist performance this past Saturday. His ten assists against Georgetown are the most by an ACC player this season, according to the conference.

The Rookie of the Week honor is usually determined by a 15-person conference media panel.
