Iowa State’s Addy Brown (player) and BYU’s Olivia Hamlin (freshman) acquired weekly Big 12 women’s basketball hardware for the sixth week of the 2025-26 campaign. ISU’s Audi Crooks, TCU’s Olivia Miles and Utah’s Lani White joined the pair on the Big 12 Starting Five, which highlights strong performances from around the league.

Brown recorded back-to-back 20-point games to help the 10th-ranked Cyclones pick up wins over in-state opponents, then-No. 11 Iowa and Northern Iowa. The forward from Derby, Kansas finished the week shooting nearly 55% from the floor while posting two double-doubles. Brown put up a season-high 28 points on 10-of-20 shooting against UNI to help ISU to its first 12-0 start in the last 11 seasons and just the fourth undefeated non-conference schedule by a Cyclone team in program history. This is the Naismith Trophy Watch List member’s second career Big 12 Player of the Week recognition.

Hamlin was an anchor for BYU during the week as the freshman led the Cougars to two wins, completing an 11-1 non-conference record. The guard from Santa Clara, Utah led her team with 21 points per game on 50% shooting with 3.0 steals and 2.0 assists per game in victories over Idaho State and UTEP. Against the Miners, Hamlin went 7-for-13 from the floor, including a 4-of-7 from downtown, a career-best en route to claiming her first career weekly league accolade.

Crooks posted 30 points and 10 rebounds in ISU’s takedown of the Hawkeyes. Miles is one of three players in Big 12 history to post multiple triple-doubles in the same season after putting up 15 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists against Jacksonville. White went 12-for-12 from three during the week, including a 7-for-7 performance against Northwestern while averaging 24.5 points over the two games. White is the only player nationally so far this season to make at least seven 3-pointers while shooting 100% from beyond the arc in a single game and her seven made 3-pointers without missing is tied for the second-most in league history.
