Damonte Dodd stopped Thomas Bryant, anchored Maryland basketball against Indiana

Maryland basketball’s Damonte Dodd shut down Indiana center Thomas Bryant, a potential first-round pick in this year’s NBA draft, in the Terps’ 75-72 win in College Park. Doing a bit of everything, he finished with six points, six rebounds and a season-best six blocks.

“[Damonte] was terrific,” said Mark Turgeon. “That kid he was guarding down low is a big-time player. Damonte stayed on his feet, stayed on pump-fakes. He was great.”

With just under a minute to play, down 73-70, Indiana tried its luck down low. But Bryant’s shot met Dodd’s palm. Maryland held him scoreless in the final 19 minutes of the game.
