[2024] Week 10 POTW

[SageBow]

Week 10 Player of the Week

SG Mitchell Henderson, SR, NEB

Mitchell, another player of the week award this season, is it any sweeter the second time around?

Yes

Hahaha lets get into it. 34 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists in a huge 84-50 win against Maryland. What did you take away from that game?

The whole team was really feeling it from the field that game, but it all starts with rebounding and defense.

And it was an outstanding defensive performance limiting your opponent to 50 points. After this game you had a tremendous 27/10/5 performance in a loss to Indiana. What was it like putting up such numbers in ultimately a losing effort?

Man I hate the state of Indiana.

Never gonna go back there ever again, I hope I neber play for the Pacers.

Very understandable. Ultimately to win this award, you scored over 60 points in 2 games, had double-doubles in both games, as well as dishing out a ton of assists. Do you feel like you're peaking heading into the back end of your senior season?

I haven't even begun to peak.

With so much ball left, is there anything left on your list to accomplish before graduation?

We gotta make the tourney this year. I can't leave with this place worse than I found it. And I mean it's not - Sleepy and Kevin are great, but our record is who we are right now.

Thanks for your time Mitchell, before I leave, any comments for the Big Red? 

Yeah I have a combo bucket at Popeye's for NIL. You get a big bucket and a little bit of everything else. Be sure to pick it up while the promotion lasts, the football team is taking most of the 1890 money and I have bills to pay.

Thanks to @alexfall862 for the interview responses
