Takeaways UNC Greensboro: Usually, the Spartans rely on strong 3-point shooting. Despite shooting 28.1% from 3, they fought back and kept it close against a superior opponent. It was a solid showing for coach Mike Jones' team.

Indiana: The Hoosiers had plenty of opportunities to seal this game but struggled to put it away. As the schedule becomes tougher, Indiana needs to find some rhythm quickly.

Key moment Tucker's five-point flurry got the struggling Hoosiers going. After allowing the Spartans to score on a layup, Indiana went on a 9-0 run to make it 54-42, and UNC Greensboro never recovered.

Key stat While Indiana's 14 turnovers helped the Spartans, UNC Greensboro's 9-of-32 shooting from beyond the arc didn't allow it to capitalize.

Up next UNC Greensboro returns to action Monday against Long Beach State in Henderson, Nevada, while the Hoosiers are off until Wednesday when they'll face nearby Louisville in the Bahamas.
