T-1. Olivier Nkamhoua, Michigan F: 16.5 PPG
Tied atop the Big Ten transfer scorers list is Finland native Olivier Nkamhoua. Despite Michigan struggling to a 2-6 start to conference play, Nkamhoua dropped 20 during the Wolverines rivalry win over Ohio State. His best game of the season came in a double overtime thriller against Florida when Nkamhoua scored 24 and added 11 boards. The 6-9 forward moves fluidly through the paint and has been a rare bright spot all season long for Michigan.
T-1. Ben Krikke, Iowa F: 16.5 PPG
Former Valparaiso forward Ben Krikke has been an incredibly efficient scorer his whole career. Krikke is a career 54.5% shooter from the field. Not only that, but Krikke’s shooting at a career high 57.1% this season and another career high 38.5% from three. Krikke is the leading scorer on the No.12 scoring offense in the country. A rivalry matchup with Minnesota yielded great results for Krikke. The senior shot 11-17 from the field for 25 points and added five rebounds. Despite Krikke’s incredible performance, the Hawkeyes find themselves sitting at 11-8. The Valpo transfer will need to take over down the stretch if Iowa is going to make it to March.
