Nebraska basketball guard Brice Williams was one of five players selected for the Oscar Robertson Trophy for National Player of the Week. The honor was announced Tuesday.

Williams was a catalyst in the program’s win over the Indiana Hoosiers last Friday. He scored 34 points in 30 minutes of play. He was successful both from the field and from the free throw line. He shot 72.7% from the line and 66.7% from the field. The senior also had six rebounds and five assists on the afternoon.

Friday’s performance was just another notch in what has been a stretch of strong matches for Williams. He has scored at least ten points in his last five games.

This strong stretch of play for Williams couldn’t come at a better time for the Huskers. The veteran is surpassing his production from last year so far, averaging 18.9 points per game while shooting 49.5 percent from the field.

The guard will undoubtedly need to continue playing at a high level for Nebraska basketball. The games will get tougher once the schedule changes, and Williams’ stellar play could make a significant difference toward an eventual NCAA Tournament run.
