Thoughts on a 77-68 win against Winthrop:
Oumar Ballo sat on the bench, inactive for tonight’s contest. Malik Reneau joined him for much of the game, saddled with foul trouble.
With Indiana’s starting bigs making less of an impact tonight, Langdon Hatton made the most of his opportunity.
In the Bahamas, Hatton did the little things, kept the ball moving and was additive to a team concept. Tonight, in 26 minutes of action, he did it again in his best game as a Hoosier. In 14 first-half minutes, the Bellarmine transfer racked up five offensive rebounds and drew fouls, keeping things alive for the Hoosiers on multiple possessions.
