It was one of the greatest single-game performances in Arizona history, nearly shattering some longstanding records. And it was only part of another big weekend for Azuolas Tubelis, who continues to build his resume for season-ending awards.
For the time being, though, another conference honor will have to suffice.
Tubelis has been named Pac-12 Player of the Week, the second time this season and third occasion in his career. He got this one after averaging 29.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 2.0 assists on 71 percent shooting in the Wildcats’ home sweep of the Oregon schools.
