In a Tuesday victory over La Salle, the Indiana native delivered a game-high 20 points on 7-of-9 shooting, adding eight rebounds and also went 6-for-7 at the line.
Friday night at VCU, he made it back-to-back 20-point performances for the first time during his Bonnies career as he poured in a game-best 23 points on 9-of-13 shooting, again adding eight rebounds while he also went 5-for-6 at the stripe.
For the year, he is averaging 12.0 points and 6.5 rebounds per game while shooting 59.6 percent from the floor, a total that ranks second in the Atlantic 10 this season.
