For the second time this season, the Big East named UConn forward Adama Sanogo the conference’s Player of the Week.

Sanogo and the Huskies played just one game this week as their matchup against Providence was cancelled, but the Mali native made the most of the their game against the Red Storm, scoring 26 points and adding 18 rebounds and six blocks to lead UConn to an overtime win.

The double-double marked the second in a row for the sophomore after scoring 18 points and 16 rebounds in the Huskies’ loss to Seton Hall.
