Udeze's Big Game Nets Big Honor

Wichita State junior Morris Udeze is the American Athletic Conference Player of the Week for Jan. 11-17.

Udeze scored a career-high 20 points and matched another with eight rebounds in the Shockers' 72-53 win over Tulsa last Wednesday. He was 6-of-7 from the field and 8-for-9 at the foul line.

Udeze is WSU's second player of the week in 2020-21, joining Dec. 28 winner Tyson Etienne.

It's the first weekly honor of any kind of Udeze, who scored 18 in his previous outing against Cincinnati (Jan. 10) and is now averaging a team-second 9.
