Providence Guard Kris Dunn is Big East Player of the Week
The Big East conference announced their weekly honors on Monday, January 12th and Providence’s Kris Dunn was named Big East Player of the Week.
Dunn averaged 20.5 points/game, 7.5 assists/game, 5.5 rebounds/game and 40.5 minutes/game in Providence’s 2 wins last week. Dunn was a catalyst in both games, including scoring 20 of his career high 25 points in the second half of a road win at Butler. Dunn also scored 8 of Providence’s 10 points in overtime in their win against Georgetown on Saturday.
Dunn is off to an impressive start to the Big East season and is leading the league in assists and steals and those marks are good for 5th (assists) and 9th (steals) nationally. This is the first time in his career Dunn has been named Big East Player of the Week. Dunn becomes the second Friar named the league’s Player of the Week with LaDontae Henton receiving the honor on November 24th.

Providence Friars Need Overtime to Beat Georgetown, 60-57, in Classic Big East Slugfest
“That was an old-school Big East war.”
Ed Cooley said that during his opening statement of the postgame press conference. It certainly had an old-school feel. The first half was a rock fight with both teams shooting under 30% from the field. Providence led by as much as 6 in the opening stanza but Georgetown was able to overcome that deficit to take a 2 point lead into the locker room, 23-21.

Cooley Uses Unconventional 2nd Half Lineup to Come Back for Friars’ Road Win at Butler
The first 20 minutes at Hinkle Fieldhouse saw a Providence team that was playing the same way they had on the road all season. The story early was turnovers of which the Friars had 6 in the first 9 minutes. Just as they seemed to quiet that issue that other ugly problem that has plagued them on the road came to the forefront: giving up offensive rebounds. Butler led by 7 at the half and Cooley and the Friars were left searching for answers.
