After an outstanding performance at the Small College Basketball Hall of Fame Classic, Cal State East Bay's Jaayden Bush has been named the FloCollege/CCAA Men's Basketball Player of the Week. (Nov. 10)

Bush delivered an outstanding opening weekend for Cal State East Bay, leading the Pioneers to victories over No. 12 Oklahoma Baptist and No. 19 Central Missouri to begin the 2026-27 season with a 2-0 record. Bush, a senior point guard from Carson, Calif., averaged 21.5 points, 6.5 steals, 3.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game while shooting .516 percent from the field (16-of-31), earning Tournament MVP honors. 

In Saturday's 69-67 victory over No. 12 Oklahoma Baptist, Bush scored 24 points (9-of-16) and knocked down the game-winning jumper with three seconds remaining to earn the No. 7 spot on that evening's Sportscenter top 10. 

He followed with 19 points (7-of-15) and eight steals against No. 19 Central Missouri, converting two free throws with three seconds left to secure a 64-62 comeback victory.
