LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Indiana starting freshman guard Jalen Hood-Schifino will not play when No. 14 Indiana faces No. 10 Arizona on Saturday.

Johnson is a top-50 prospect in the 2025 class and a 4-star.  He’s a point guard, but at 6-foot-4 and likely still growing could probably play off the ball in college as well. Alabama, Cincinnati, Xavier and Ohio State are the main schools involved with Johnson right now, along with…
