UW hoops: Andrew Andrews named Pac-12 Player of the Week (plus my AP top 25 ballot)
Huskies guard Andrew Andrews was voted Pac-12 Player of the Week after averaging 23.7 points, 10.0 rebounds and 4.7 assists during three games last week at the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in the Bahamas.
Andrews set the tournament record for both total points and scoring average.
The Huskies went 1-2 in the Bahamas, losing 80-64 to Gonzaga and 82-70 to Texas before beating Charlotte, 71-65, on the final day.
UW (4-2) returns to Seattle for eight consecutive home games, a stretch that begins with Sunday’s game against Cal State-Fullerton and ends with the beginning of Pac-12 play against UCLA (Jan. 1) and USC (Jan. 3).
