Indiana men's basketball looks to improve interior offense early in season

The team showed weaknesses in its half court execution and has yet to exceed 16 assists in a game, a significant drop from the prior season's performance. Indiana's new players need time to adapt to each other, and head coach Darian DeVries faces challenges in incorporating his two new bigs, Samet Yigitoglu and Aiden Sherrell, into the offensive scheme.
