Kansas guard Frank Mason III (0) roars after an and-one bucket during the second half of the Armed Forces Classic at Stan Sheriff Center, on Friday, Nov. 11, 2016 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

As a result of willing the Kansas basketball team to overtime against Indiana Friday in Honolulu, and tying his career-high with 30 points prior to fouling out, KU senior point guard Frank Mason opened the season as the Big 12’s Player of the Week.

Mason, a 5-foot-11 senior from Petersburg, Va., shot 8-for-20 from the field and made 13 of 15 free throws, while adding nine assists and seven rebounds in KU’s 103-99 OT loss to the Hoosiers.

His two free throws with 0:02 left on the second-half clock sent the game to overtime and capped a remarkable stretch, during which Mason scored the final 11 KU points of regulation.

The big night for Mason marked the fifth time in his four years at Kansas he scored 20-plus points. Mason’s nine assists gave him seven or more helpers for the 14th time in his college career.

Kansas takes on Duke Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden, in New York.
