UConn forward Adama Sanogo was named the Big East’s Player of the Week after helping the Huskies to a 2-1 record in the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in the Bahamas. The sophomore is making a name for himself on a national scale.
Sanogo opened the tournament with a bang, dropping 30 points in UConn’s double-overtime win over Auburn while adding in six rebounds and two blocks. The very next day, he posted an 18-point, 10-rebound double-double in the loss to Michigan State before finishing the week with six points, seven boards, and three assists to help power the Huskies past VCU.
