In their previous three games, the Indiana Hoosiers have showcased their talent and determination. Trayce Jackson-Davis has been the standout player for the team, consistently delivering impressive performances. In the first game against Rutgers Scarlet Knights, Jackson-Davis scored 20 points, grabbed 18 rebounds, and dished out 6 assists. His dominance on both ends of the court was evident as he recorded 1 block and 0 turnovers.


Another player to watch out for is guard Trey Galloway. Although he had a relatively quiet game against Rutgers with only 4 points and 2 assists, Galloway has shown great potential throughout the season. His ability to contribute in multiple areas of the game makes him a valuable asset for the Hoosiers.


On the other side of the court, the Michigan Wolverines have also displayed their skills in their previous games. Guard Kobe Bufkin has been a consistent scorer for the team, averaging 13 points per game over the past three matchups. His shooting efficiency has been impressive with a field goal percentage of 54.5%.


Center Hunter Dickinson has been a force in the paint for the Wolverines. In their most recent game against Ohio State Buckeyes, Dickinson recorded an impressive double-double with 26 points and 11 rebounds. His ability to dominate inside and protect the rim will be crucial for Michigan's success against Indiana.


Looking at the overall performance of both teams over their last three games, it is clear that Indiana Hoosiers have an edge in terms of scoring efficiency. They have shot an average of 49.3% from the field, while the Wolverines have shot 46.9%. However, the Wolverines have been more effective from beyond the arc, shooting 40.6% compared to the Hoosiers' 23.8%.


In terms of rebounding, both teams have been strong on the boards. The Hoosiers have averaged 41 rebounds per game, with Trayce Jackson-Davis leading the way with his impressive average of 13 rebounds per game. The Wolverines have averaged 38 rebounds per game, with Hunter Dickinson contributing significantly with his average of 8 rebounds.


As these two teams prepare to face each other at Crisler Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan, fans can expect a highly competitive and intense game. The matchup between Trayce Jackson-Davis and Hunter Dickinson will be one to watch as they battle for dominance in the paint.


Basketball enthusiasts can catch all the action live on ESPN at 7:00 PM ET on February 11th, 2023. This game promises to be a thrilling showdown between two talented teams vying for supremacy in the Big Ten conference.
