INDIANAPOLIS -- James Whitford called Tahjai Teague the best player on the floor Sunday. He credited Teague's smarts and Kyle Mallers' ability to switch screens as catalysts for a quality defensive performance.
But he also wanted to make one thing crystal clear; this was a complete team victory.
The Cardinals (3-1) pulled away in the second half for a 69-55 win over Indiana State at Bankers Life Fieldhouse and their third straight win in the series.
"Watching (Indiana State) on film, they're a good team, and I don't have any question they're going to have a good year," Whitford said.
