Devonte Green took a screen from Joey Brunk and as he weaved his way to the top of the free-throw line, he threw an alley-oop over the top of the defense to a rolling Brunk, resulting in an easy layup to extend Indiana’s lead to 19 on Saturday night.
What happened after that basket was something Indiana has let happen far too often this season. A trend that has plagued the Hoosiers time and time again over the last seven games.
The Green to Brunk alley-oop came with 12:52 left in the game. With their largest lead of the night and first road win a dozen minutes away, the Hoosiers didn’t hit another field goal until there was 4:45 left, making only three free throws in that over 8-minute drought as the lead whittled down to eight points.
