1. Chris Youngblood – Junior Guard – #3
2022-23 stats: 12 GP, 33.5 MIN, 13.2 PPG, 4.8 AST, 2.2 STL, 2.6 TOV, 1.9 3PM, 35.4 3P%
Chris Youngblood has notched six 15-point games this season, including two 20-point nights in his junior campaign. Youngblood has hit two or more three-pointers in 10 of his 12 games and has attempted five or more threes in nine of his 12 games so far.
Youngblood has shown his ability to be a consistent scorer and the ability to go off as well. The junior guard has played six games against major conference teams in his career, including his 20-point night against Florida on November 11.
The young guard averaged 17.5 points on three made three-pointers per game in his first four games this season. Since that hot start, Youngblood has averaged 12.5 points on 2.1 made threes per game, along with adding just 16 assists (2.0 average) and 12 total turnovers (1.5 average).
If the Hoosiers limit Youngblood, they will run away with this game. If Youngblood gets hot from deep, Indiana might be in for a real game on Friday night.
