McCray scored a career-high 35 points in KU’s 69-45 victory over No. 5 Baylor on Wednesday, also putting in seven of her 10 three-point attempts.
On Saturday against Iowa State, McCray scored 27 points to go with 11 rebounds in the Jayhawks’ 59-49 loss.
McCray became the first KU women’s player to be named Big 12 player of the week three times in one season.
