Wyoming Dunker Named Mountain West Player of the Week
Now, this has got to sting.

Wyoming's Joseph Taylor -- the kid who threw down a highlight-reel windmill jam in a win against the Utes last weekend and later put home a needless alley-oop dunk at the buzzer that ignited a profane shouting match between coaches Jim Boylen and Heath Schroyer -- has been named the Mountain West Conference player of the week.

The senior averaged 16.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.0 blocks while shooting 68.4 percent in wins over the Utes and Colorado State, so he had the numbers to warrant it. But still ... ouch.
