Timberlake posted back-to-back 20-point double-doubles, giving him five double-doubles in his last seven games. He started the week with 21 points on 10-of-11 shooting, while chipping in 10 rebounds and three assists as Bryant raced past NJIT. Timberlake then helped the Bulldogs hold off UMBC on Saturday, finishing with 20 points, 11 rebounds and six assists.

The Washington, D.C., native is second in the America East with 11 double-doubles and is averaging 15.0 ppg, 10.2 rpg, 4.6 apg and 2.4 bpg in league play.
