Illinois star Ayo Dosunmu was named Big Ten Co-Player of the Week on Monday, the conference office announced. He shares this week's award with Minnesota's Marcus Carr.

It is Dosunmu's second weekly conference honor of the season, and third of his career.

Averaged 30.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists in wins at Penn State and vs. Indiana last week. 

His game high 30 points and game-high 5 assists vs. Indiana helped Illinois pull away late and his game high 30 points with 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals at Penn State allowed the Illini to hold off the Nittany Lions.

Dosunmu is the first Illini player in the last 23 seasons with back-to-back 30-point performances.
