For the third time this season, sophomore forward Cody Zeller has earned Big Ten player of the week, the conference announced Monday morning in a press release.

This week, he shared the honor with Ohio State's Aaron Craft.

Zeller is now tied with Michigan's Trey Burke for the most weekly honors this season.

Zeller averaged 21 points in games against Michigan and Ohio State this week, including 25 Sunday against the Wolverines to clinch the outright conference title. He also posted 10 rebounds as IU made a furious last minute comeback to win by one.

He averaged 16.8 points and 8.1 rebounds per game for the no-completed regular season.
