Ohio State's Evan Turner is currently among the top two in points, rebounds and assists. If Turner's numbers stand, he could become the only player in Big Ten history to finish in the top three in each category since assists became an official stat during the 1983-84 season. The Buckeye sophomore is averaging 18.9 points per game (2nd), 9.5 rpg (1st) and 5.7 apg (2nd).
Only five players in Big Ten history have finished in the top 10 of those categories, since 1983-84. (Note on this is that the stats in our books from the 83-84, 84-85, and 85-86 seasons are based on conference games only):
