With the final games of his senior year winding down, Jordan Murphy made sure to get the Gophers turned back around with his performance Saturday vs. Indiana.

Murphy’s 23 points, 11 rebounds and three assists helped Minnesota snap a four-game losing streak with an 84-63 win against the Hoosiers. The 6-foot-7 forward from San Antonio also had 19 points, 13 rebounds and three assists in a 62-61 loss Wednesday at Nebraska.

His two strong efforts led to a school-record sixth career Big Ten player of the week honor Monday.

“I just think physically, I don’t think I’ve seen a guy that strong,” Indiana coach Archie Miller said, “just be able to hold ground and do what he wants to do without losing balance. He’s done that for I don’t know how many years now.”
