Creighton center Ryan Kalkbrenner is The Associated Press men's college basketball player of the week. That comes after the 7-foot-1 fifth-year senior put up 49 points against UT-Rio Grande Valley. He finished two points shy of tying the Bluejays' single-game scoring record set in 1967. Kalkbrenner followed that with 24 points against Fairleigh Dickinson. He made 29 of 32 shots in those two games for a conversion rate of 90.6%. Kansas' Zeke Mayo was runner-up after coming up big in a marquee matchup against North Carolina.
