Valdosta State guard Patrick Diop (JR, 6-3, 190, Orlando, FL) was again named the Noah Basketball Gulf South Conference Player of the Week on Tuesday.
Diop registered 37 points, shooting .500 from the field, and also racked up nine rebounds, nine assists and eight steals in two contests this past week, both wins for VSU. He first scored 17 points, pulling down four rebounds, dishing out five assists and had four take-aways in a win over Christian Brothers on Thursday. He then dropped 20 points and tallied five rebounds, four assists and four steals in a win on Saturday over Delta State.
This is Diop’s second GSC Player of the Week honor this season as he has now earned the achievement in consecutive weeks.
