The Cornhuskers held Trayce Jackson-Davis to 14 points across 35 minutes of play on Saturday. It was the junior’s lowest scoring total in games he’s seen at least 26 minutes of action. (Jackson-Davis’ season-low is 11 points, coming against both Jackson State and Louisiana, both blowout games he saw limited playing time.)
Nebraska fronted Jackson-Davis and sent help backside in an effort to keep the ball out of his hands. If he was able to receive the ball, a double team came. And when the Hoosiers tried to swing the ball to the weak side, Nebraska did a great job of rotating and switching, making sure Indiana didn’t have open looks from deep off their doubles, if they hadn’t already turned Jackson-Davis over.
