Through one week of the 2016-17 season, Illinois wing Malcolm Hill is averaging 30.5 points and 10.0 rebounds per game. Those numbers figured to put him in prime contention for the first set of Big Ten awards, and that was exactly the case on Monday morning as the league named him a Co-Player of the Week; the other recipient was James Blackmon Jr. (Indiana).
