Florida International freshman forward Raphael DaSilva has been named this week's Sun Belt Player of the Week.
A native of Brazil, DaSilva scored a career-best 21 points on 8-of-11 shooting to lead FIU to a 63-58 upset win over New Orleans Saturday. The effort helped the Golden Panthers snap a 15-game Sun Belt losing skid.
