IRVING, Texas (November 13, 2023) – The American Athletic Conference announced its first weekly honors for men’s basketball Player of the Week and Freshman of the Week on Monday. Jayden Reid represented the University of South Florida men’s basketball team with a Freshman of the Week accolade after a stellar debut for the Bulls.
Reid recorded a double-double in his first collegiate game with 11 points and 10 assists. He also tied for a game-high five rebounds. He was dishing out dimes for most of the contest, which included a pass that led the SportsCenter No. 1 play of the night on Thursday. On the opposite of the court, he helped a stout defense hold South Carolina State to zero made 3-pointers (0-18). It is only the third time in history that the Bulls held an opponent to zero 3-point field goals. The last time was March 3, 2019, against UConn.
