With Tayton Conerway Limited, Indiana Basketball Will Lean on Nick Dorn vs Purdue
- Dorn started in place of the injured Conerway and led Indiana in the Rutgers win with 23 points and six threes.
- Indiana coach DeVries said Conerway isn't fully healthy yet and has been limited in practice.
- Dorn has become a significant X-factor, providing outside shooting and floor spacing for Indiana's offense.
- Dorn transferred from Elon and has evolved into Indiana's key floor-spacer with his 3-point shooting.
- Indiana and Purdue were set to play a Big Ten showdown at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in Bloomington.
- Dorn had 14 points at Michigan and 37 points combined with Rutgers, showing scoring versatility.
- Dorn has not committed a turnover across 65 minutes in the past two games.
- Dorn's 3-point shooting percentage stands at 45.1% this season.
- Indiana needed to explore more minutes for Dorn to maximize the team’s ceiling this season.
- Conerway's injury timing created an opportunity for Dorn to rise when Indiana hosts Purdue.
