BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Aljami Durham has been waiting for this.
The senior has shown steady improvement throughout his IU career, building his confidence and becoming one of Indiana's steadiest players in his first three seasons. He went from shooting 40.9 percent as a freshman overall to 40.3 percent—a tick down, but still steady—as a sophomore before shooting 44.1 percent from the field last year.
It was the same story from 3-point range where Durham's shooting percentage jumped from .286 as a freshman to .348 as a sophomore and .383 as a junior.
It was the same story from the free-throw line where Durham's numbers went from 71.
