Indiana men's basketball forward Tucker DeVries is arguably one of the best small forwards in the country. When Indiana landed DeVries this off-season they truly added a solid piece for the Hoosiers 2025-26 season. He also provides rebounding, defense and veteran leadership on the court which is why Indiana is off to a 2-0 start.
