Bryson Tucker - Scores 12 against Panthers Tucker totaled 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 20 minutes during Sunday's 90-55 win over Eastern Illinois.

Impact Tucker chipped in 12 points, six rebounds, a block, a steal and an assist as the Hoosiers took down Eastern Illinois on Sunday. The 6-foot-7 freshman has looked good off the bench, averaging seven points and four rebounds across Indiana's first two games. Tucker is unlikely to play a heavy role as the Hoosiers start to square off against tougher opponents.

Oumar Ballo - Approaches double-double in rout Ballo chipped in 17 points (8-10 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 27 minutes during Sunday's 90-55 victory over Eastern Illinois.

Impact Ballo finished one rebound shy of a double-double as the Hoosiers trounced Eastern Illinois. The 7-foot senior has been a force in his transition to Indiana, averaging 16 points, 7.5 rebounds, two assists and two blocks across the Hoosiers' first two games. Ballo forms a big time one-two punch alongside Malik Reneau for an upward trending Indiana team.

Malik Reneau - Strong outing against Eastern Illinois Reneau ended with 17 points (8-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 25 minutes during Sunday's 90-55 victory over Eastern Illinois.

Impact Reneau closed with 17 points, six rebounds, two assists, a block and two steals, stuffing the stat sheet during Saturday's win over Eastern Illinois. The 6-foot-9 junior has averaged 16 points, 6.5 rebounds, two steals and 1.5 blocks across the Hoosiers' first two games, filling in well alongside Oumar Ballo in Indiana's formidable frontcourt.

Oumar Ballo - Good to go Ballo (undisclosed) is listed as Indiana's starting center for Saturday's matchup with Eastern Illinois, InsideTheHall.com reports.

Impact Ballo was initially deemed questionable for the matchup, though the senior will ultimately suit up Saturday. Ballo posted 15 points in the Hoosiers' opener after 12.9 points and 10.1 rebounds across 25.9 minutes with Arizona last season.

Trey Galloway - Expert distributor off the bench Galloway closed with six points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 17 minutes during Wednesday's 80-61 victory over SIUE.

Impact Galloway dished out nine assists in just 17 minutes off action off the bench Wednesday, playing a pivotal role behind starter Myles Rice. The 6-foot-5 senior is unlikely to reclaim his starting point guard role from the aforementioned Washington State transfer, but his contributions off the bench should lead to consistent playing time with the Hoosiers this season.

Myles Rice - Starts in program debut Rice recorded 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 80-61 win over SIUE.

Impact Rice was immediately thrust into the Hoosiers' starting lineup after starting in all 35 games with Washington State last season. The 6-foot-3 sophomore tallied 11 points, four rebounds, four assists and two steals, making solid contributions on both sides of the ball. Rice looks to play a key role as Indiana's top point guard this season, but with plenty of other scoring options in Mackenzie Mgbako, Malik Reneau and Oumar Ballo, it seems unlikely he mirrors his offensive production from last season.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Mackenzie Mgbako - Signs of breakout season Mgbako had 31 points (13-17 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 80-61 win over SIUE.

Impact Mgbako averaged a solid, but perhaps unspectacular, 12.2 points and 4.1 rebounds during his freshman season at Indiana, and the five-star freshman closed the year with 24 points as his personal best scoring total. He shattered that total in his 2024-25 debut while also operating far more efficiently. The caliber of opponent certainly must be taken into account, but the high usage and versatile scoring ability shown Wednesday could be a sign a true breakout campaign is on the way for Mgbako.

Kanaan Carlyle - Trying to recover from rib injury Carlyle is trying to recover from a rib injury, per Seth Tow of The Daily Hoosier.

Impact Carlyle suffered bruised ribs from a shot taken during Indiana's exhibition game against Tennessee. He is taking his injury day by by as the Hoosiers prepare for their next game, currently scheduled for Wednesday against SIU-Edwardsville. Their schedule gives Carlyle at least half a week to work with before regular-season action begins for them.

Jordan Rayford - Returns in exhibition game Rayford played six minutes in Friday's exhibition game versus Marian (IN).

Impact Rayford made his return to the court Friday after suffering a season-ending injury in December last season. He scored four points (2-3 shooting), grabbed three rebounds and recorded one assist in his six minutes of action.

Jakai Newton - Active for exhibition game Newton (knee) is dressed ahead of Friday's exhibition game against Marian, Zach Osterman of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Newton will make his debut with the Hoosiers after sitting out during Indiana's previous exhibition game against the Volunteers. The 6-foot-3 freshman was a top-150 recruit in the class of 2023 and redshirted last season after being plagued by injuries.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Trey Galloway - Available for exhibition game Galloway (knee) is part of the Hoosiers' starting lineup for their exhibition game Friday against Marian, according to Kyler Staley of HoosierIllustrated.com.

Impact Galloway is healthy just in time for the Hoosiers' last game of their offseason before regular-season action begins for them Monday. This will give him at least one opportunity for game experience going into the opening day and should allow him an opportunity to adapt into the Hoosiers' 2024-25 campaign right off the bat. Galloway's 2023-24 senior season included him averaging career highs in points (10.6), assists (4.6) and steals (1.2) across 31 games, not his career high but quite a lot.
