Iowa State’s Deonte Burton has been named the Big 12 newcomer of the week, the conference announced Monday.
Burton, a transfer from Marquette, scored 12 points on 5 of 6 shooting in ISU’s only game last week, a 81-79 victory on the road against No. 22 Cincinnati.
The Cyclones host Coppin State on Wednesday before beginning conference play Saturday at No. 3 Oklahoma.
