ROSEMONT, Ill. – Indiana senior forward Trayce Jackson-Davis was named the Co-Big Ten Player of the Week, the league announced on Monday.
The award is the eighth of his career, extending his own program record. Calbert Cheaney and Steve Alford (six each) rank second on the all-time Hoosier list for Big Ten Player of the Week selections. Alan Henderson and D.J. White are the only other IU players to claim at least five awards. Jackson-Davis also moves past White for single-season selections with five.
Jackson-Davis averaged 26.5 points, 11.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 3.0 steals, and 1.5 blocks per game in his final two home games of his decorated career.
To open the week, the Greenwood native charted 26 points, 13 rebounds, five assists, four steals, and one block against Iowa. The game marked his eighth outing of the season with at least 20 points and 10 rebounds.
TJD tallied 27 points, nine rebounds, six assists, two steals, and two blocked shots in a come-from-behind victory over Michigan on March 5. The victory helped the Hoosier clinch the No. 3 seed in the upcoming Big Ten Conference Tournament, the highest seed for the program since 2016.
