United States Basketball Writers Association Oscar Robertson National Player of the Week award went to Arizona Basketball forward, Ryan Anderson. The award is voted on by representatives of the USBWA board of directors from a list of Division I players. For the first time in seven years, the USBWA awarded three players consecutively from one conference: Ryan Anderson, Dillon Brooks, Oregon and Jakob Poeltl, Utah.
Anderson earned the first 30-point, 10-rebound performance by a Wildcat since March 2011 with 31 points and 12 boards in Wednesday’s 79-64 win over Washington State.
