BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Parker Stewart has found his offense.
You'd better believe it matters.
It came in a 13-minute flurry spanning the first and second half, a 6-for-6 (4-for-4 on three-pointers), 16-point display during Sunday night's 76-44 victory over Louisiana (3-1) in an opening game of the Hoosier Classic.
"I saw him shoot like this in an exhibition game," coach Mike Woodson said. "I've seen him do it in practice.
"He was ready to shoot. No hesitation. He caught it and let it go."
Given Stewart, a transfer guard from Tennessee-Martin, was recruited for his shooting prowess, given that he'd scored six, zero and three points in his first three games, given the Hoosiers' need for perimeter firepower, given all 11 Hoosiers who played scored, it suggests all is right with the Indiana offensive world.
