Football? Basketball? Why not both?

With Jalen Hurts being named Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week earlier today, Oklahoma forward Kristian Doolittle was named Big 12 player of the week.

Doolittle had a double double against Oregon State last Tuesday, tallying 19 points and 16 rebounds in the 77-69 win over the Beavers.

This is Doolittle’s first weekly Big 12 honor of his career and the first weekly honor since Christian James in December of 2018.

Doolittle’s 19 points, 16 rebounds and four assists was just the third such stat line in Oklahoma men’s basketball history. Both Eduardo Najera and Blake Griffin recorded such stat lines, with Griffin doing it twice in his Sooner career.

Doolittle has averaged 8.4 points a game and 6.1 rebounds per game in his career.

Doolittle and the Sooners are set to take on William & Mary at 6 p.m. CT at Lloyd Noble Center. The game can be found on FOX Sports Southwest as well as the Sooner Sports Network.
