- Indiana resumes conference action on Thursday afternoon, posting a 2-0 mark in early league games before the holiday break. It defeated Illinois at home and Penn State on the road to join four other teams in starting Big Ten play off at 2-0.
- The Hoosiers have won six of the last seven meetings against Michigan State dating back to the 2017-18 season. The two teams met just once last season, in a 76-58 win for IU at home on Feb. 12.
- Senior forward Mackenzie Holmes continues to be one of the nation's best shooters, averaging 19.9 points per game while shooting 69.0 percent from the field. The Gorham, Maine native is second in the country and in the Big Ten in field goal percentage and the second leading scorer in the league. She also paces IU on the glass with 7.1 rebounds per game.
- Freshman guard Yarden Garzon continues to shoot at a high clip from beyond the arc, going 51.8 percent in 12 games. She leads the team with 29 made triples.
- Junior guard Chloe Moore-McNeil has been impressive with handling the basketball, as she leads the Big Ten and second in the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio with a +4.7. She has distributed 61 assists to just 13 turnovers and has maintained primary point guard responsibilities for the last six games. The Sharon, Tenn. native has dished out multiple assists in 11 games this season.
