Kel'el Ware had a solid performance in the game, particularly excelling in rebounding with a game-high 15 rebounds, but struggled with his shooting, finishing 3-of-12 from the field. His putback slam provided a much-needed spark to Assembly Hall. He scored 5 points in the first half and was kept under wraps by the opposing team.

Malik Reneau had a strong first half, scoring 8 points on efficient shooting. However, foul trouble limited his playing time, as he picked up a second and third foul on questionable calls. Despite running the offense through Reneau, his efficiency dropped in the second half, finishing with 13 points, four assists, and three rebounds.

Trey Galloway, IU's senior leader, set the tone early in the game, scoring a game-high 13 points in the first half and finishing with a career-high 28 points. He was aggressive in attacking the rim and also made two 3-pointers. However, he had a game-high five turnovers, affecting his overall rating.

Mackenzie Mgbako, a freshman, showed progress and confidence in his offensive game, with aggressive drives to the basket and a 3-pointer in transition. He finished with 14 points and five rebounds, demonstrating his potential as a five-star talent.

Gabe Cupps ran the point in the absence of Xavier Johnson and put in a steady performance against an elite opponent. Despite his low box score of 2 points, 1 assist, and 2 rebounds, he showed good defensive skills and only committed one turnover.

Kaleb Banks provided energy and solid defense in the first half but was limited by foul trouble, picking up four fouls in 16 minutes. He did not score or grab a rebound, resulting in a low rating.

Anthony Walker showed aggressiveness in the first half, earning trips to the free-throw line and contributing to box outs, finishing with three defensive rebounds. He accounted for all of the bench scoring with 3 points.

CJ Gunn only played 5 minutes in the game, a significant decrease from his previous playing time in the past three games.

Overall, the Indiana Hoosiers had a mixed performance, with standout individual efforts from players like Trey Galloway and Mackenzie Mgbako, but also facing challenges such as foul trouble and turnovers.
