Three takeaways from Maryland men's basketball's 68-55 loss to IndianaFrom the Maryland men’s basketball team’s offensive struggles to a missed opportunity at home, here are three takeaways from the Terps’ 68-5...

Hakim Hart - Drops 15 points against HoosiersHart contributed 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and four rebounds across 34 minutes during Saturday's 68-55 loss to Indiana.
ImpactHart converted 50 percent of his attempts from the floor Saturday, and he was the top scorer for the Terrapins as the team struggled to generate much offensive production. The junior has returned to the starting lineup in each of the last three games and has averaged 10.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 34.0 minutes per contest during that time.

Xavier Johnson - Dishes out nine dimesJohnson finished with eight points (1-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Saturday's 68-55 victory over Maryland.
ImpactJohnson was inefficient from the floor during Saturday's win, but he led the team in assists. The transfer from Pittsburgh has played at least 30 minutes in each of his last four appearances and has averaged 14.8 points, 5.8 assists and 4.3 rebounds in 32.3 minutes per contest across that span.

Michael Durr - Sits back-to-back gamesDurr was sidelined for the second consecutive game in Saturday's 68-55 victory over Maryland.
ImpactNo word of an injury has yet surfaced, but Durr's absence is notable considering he'd seen the court in each of the last 18 games. The minutes have been highly inconsistent, however, ranging from two to 24. The seven-footer typically provides relief if Race Thompson finds himself in foul trouble, but Thompson played a clean game Saturday and had the hot hand, putting up 18 points and 12 rebounds. Even with that in mind, it's still a bit curious that freshman center Logan Duncomb saw the court before Durr. His next chance to take the court will be next Saturday against Illinois, so if there is an injury in play, a week on the sidelines may be enough time to heal up.
