Feb. 8, 2016

Gameday

INDIANAPOLIS - Oakland junior guard Kay Felder has been named the Horizon League Men's Basketball Player of the Week, announced the league office on Monday.

Felder claimed his fifth Horizon League Player of the Week honor after posting three double-double performances last week for the Golden Grizzlies.

He opened the week with 24 points and 10 assists as Oakland revenged an earlier loss to Northern Kentucky with an 85-74 win at NKU. Three days later, Felder helped the Golden Grizzlies again defeat a team that had previously beat them as Oakland won at Youngstown State, 107-85. Felder led six players in double figures with 17 points and added a game-high 14 assists. He wrapped up the week with 13 points and 11 assists as the Golden Grizzlies got past Cleveland State, 67-57.

Felder continues to lead the nation in assists per game (9.1) and ranks fourth in scoring (24.7). Only one player listed as a guard (Stetson's Brian Pegg) has more double-doubles on the season than Felder's 13. He has been named a midseason finalist for the John Wooden award, as well as one of 10 finalists for the Bob Cousy award.

Felder's Player of the Week nod is his fifth this season. The record for Player of the Week selections in a single season is six set by Green Bay's Keifer Sykes in the 2013-14 season. The Oakland junior now has seven career Player of the Week honors. Sykes has the most in Horizon League history with 11.
