2. Justice Sueing – Senior Forward – #14

2022-23 stats: 20 GP, 28.6 MIN, 13.0 PPG, 4.6 REB, 2.1 AST, 1.2 STL, 44.7 FG%, 26.4 3P%

In Justice Sueing’s last game against the Hoosiers, he posted 16 points on 6-for-10 shooting and added 10 rebounds in a 78-59 home win over Indiana back on February 13, 2021.

Last season, Sueing missed nearly the entire 2021-22 season with an abdominal injury and was set up for a huge season after averaging 10.7 points and 5.5 rebounds in his first season for the Buckeyes as a redshirt junior.

Sueing’s best game of the year came against No. 21 Texas Tech at the Maui Jim Maui Invitational on November 23, where the redshirt senior poured in 33 points on 12-for-19 shooting from the field and added eight rebounds and five assists in a big win for Ohio State.

He has the ability to go off if teams allow him, but he’s averaging just 8.5 points and 3.3 rebounds over his last four games and seems to be a bit off on the floor, coming off the bench in two straight games for Holtmann.
