Evans averaged 21.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 8.0 assists against the Horned Frogs and Razorbacks. He shot 60 percent from the floor and 50 percent from 3-point, and he was 10-of-11 from the free throw line. He also had eight assists and only one turnover in each game.

Evans is only the third player in the conference to claim the award twice this season. His first came in early December following two standout performances against Rogers State and No. 22 Maryland.

Evans is averaging 18.1 points per game to go along with 2.8 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 2.0 steals. The list of folks who have gone 18-3-5-2, which Evans has a chance to do, is not lengthy.
