Indiana freshman Mackenzie Mgbako will return to school next season.
Dushawn London first reported the news.
A native of Gladstone, New Jersey, the 6-foot-8 wing averaged 12.2 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.3 assists for the Hoosiers during the 2023-24 season.
Mgbako was named the Big Ten’s co-freshman of the year. He is Indiana’s second straight Big Ten freshman of the year after Jalen Hood-Schifino won the award last season.
Initially a Duke signee in the 2023 class, Mgbako reopened his recruitment in the spring of 2023 and chose Indiana over Kansas.
His numbers and production steadily improved throughout his first college season.
