Bloomington, Indiana — After the Indiana Hoosiers’ top player, Trayce Jackson-Davis withdrew from the NBA draft Friday, he will be on the court next season.

The 6-foot-9 forward was a preseason All-American last fall, finished sixth in the Big Ten in scoring at 18.3 points per game and rebounding with 8.1 while leading the Hoosiers to a 21-14 mark and an NCAA Tournament appearance in coach Mike Woodson’s first season as coach.
He was a second-team all-Big Ten selection by the coaches and media.
Jackson-Davis’s also ninth on Indiana’s career list in rebounds (797) and seventh in blocks (178).
“I am looking forward to returning to Indiana to be with my coaches and teammates and building off of what we accomplished at the end of the season,” Jackson-Davis said in a statement released by the athletic department. “There are goals I have for our team and for myself individually on the court, but at the end of next year, more importantly, I will be proud to say I am a graduate of IU.”
