    Indiana basketball has added frontcourt depth to the 2026-27 roster.

    Wuerzburg’s Clemens Sokolov has committed to Indiana, agents Misko Raznatovic and Dragan Jankovski told DraftExpress’ Jonathan Givony on Friday afternoon.

    The 7-foot, 18-year-old German center averaged 6.4 points and 5.0 rebounds in 23 minutes per game in Pro B Germany, Givony says.

    Sokolov is the second 7-footer on the Indiana roster, joining 7-foot-2 SMU transfer Samet Yigitoglu.  The Hoosiers also have 6-foot-11 forward/center Aiden Sherrell.  IU now has a total of 11 scholarship players on its roster for next season.

    The news comes just a day after head coach Darian DeVries said Indiana was seeking frontcourt depth on its 2026-27 roster.

    At 18, Sokolov should arrive in Bloomington as a freshman.
