I decided to look each week at who the top players are in Big 12 each week based off advanced metrics. Specifically, I am basing this off the POPUGATU! metric from Bart Torvik - both the normal version and defensive version combined. Week would be from Monday-Sunday since that's the typical CBB game week for the NCAA. I will in essence post a 1st team, 2nd team and honorable mentions for each week. Although ranking is based off advanced metrics, I am including some of the "counting stat" averages for each player. This post is for the month of November.
1st team:
Simas Lukosius, Cincinnati (16.5 pts, 3.2 reb, 4.0 ast)
Javon Small, West Virginia (19.0 pts, 4.3 reb, 4.7 ast)
Darrion Williams, Texas Tech (16.7 pts, 6.0 reb, 5.0 ast)
JT Toppin, Texas Tech (18.6 pts, 11.0 reb, 1.1 ast)
Chance McMillian, Texas Tech (13.7 pts, 3.6 reb, 2.3 ast)
2nd team:
Emanuel Sharp, Houston (14.4 pts, 3.1 reb, 1.3 ast)
Jizzle James, Cincinnati (13.8 pts, 4.3 reb, 5.7 ast)
Keshon Gilbert, Iowa St (16.5 pts, 2.5 reb, 5.3 ast)
Egor Demin, BYU (14.3 pts, 4.9 reb, 6.3 ast)
Hunter Dickinson, Kansas (15.7 pts, 9.1 reb, 1.9 ast)
Honorable Mention:
Norchad Omier, Baylor (15.9 pts, 10.4 reb, 2.0 ast)
