Auburn guard Tahaad Pettiford is SportsCall’s Player of the Week!

The freshman superstar stepped up with Auburn shorthanded, leading Auburn to two close wins to remain undefeated in conference play.

On Tuesday, against top-15 Mississippi State, Pettiford scored 12 points and dished out four assists, helping the Tigers to an 88-66 win in Neville Arena.

On Saturday, on the road against a top-25 Georgia team, Pettiford had one of the best games of his young career, scoring 24 points in 22 minutes, hitting five threes in seven attempts, and leading Auburn to a 70-68 win.

Largely in part because of the play of Pettiford, Auburn is the unanimous number 1 in the AP poll for the first time in history, and alone at the top of the SEC.
