After his record-setting game against Fresno State on Saturday, Wolf Pack freshman Cameron Oliver was named the Mountain West player of the week by the conference Monday.
Oliver set a single-game rebound record for a Mountain West conference game against the Bulldogs, grabbing 24 rebounds while notching a career-best 20 points in a 77-72 overtime win. The 24 rebounds were six shy of the Wolf Pack single-game record. The 20-20 game was the first by a MW player since New Mexico's Drew Gordon had 27 points and 20 rebounds in a win over UNLV in 2012.
“I don’t even know how to describe it,” teammate Tyron Criswell said of Oliver’s play.
