For the third time this season, New Mexico guard Elijah Brown earned weekly honors from the Mountain West.
The conference on Monday announced Brown received the player of the week award after he averaged 23.5 points in wins over Air Force and Boise State. Saturday's victory over the Broncos, where Brown netted 30 points, also pushed the Lobos into second place in the standings.
In addition to his point totals, Brown sank 52.2 percent of his attempts from the field and 61.5 percent from the line in both wins.
Brown earlier won the awards on Nov.
