[IUFR] Breaking Down Indiana's 3-Point Barrage
Coach Adragna takes a look at all 12 of Indiana's made 3-pointers in their victory over North Alabama.
It finally happened!
Indiana had a game where they got hot from the outside.
In total, the Hoosiers made 12 3-pointers. On the season, Indiana has already had four games in which they didn’t even take 12 3s.
It was also a season-high in attempts, as the Hoosiers shot 12-24 on the evening.
So what led to this 3-point barrage from the Hoosiers? How did they get the shot? We dive in below.
