He graduated from Wisconsin in 20202 and was a four-year letterwinner for the men&#8217;s tennis program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CBS Sports mock 2026 NBA Draft has Indiana&#8217;s Tucker DeVries going in the second-round<\/strong>                                                                                                                Tucker DeVries has a five-year college body of work that includes twice being named conference player of the year. There\u2019s belief in some circles he can return to that form and become a viable NBA contributor.  In his full 60-pick 2026 mock NBA Draft, CBS Sports\u2019\u00a0Adam Finkelstein has DeVries going\u00a0to the Golden State Warriors in the second round with the 54th overall pick.  Here\u2019s what Finkelstein said about putting DeVries in that spot.  \u201cI got to see DeVries work out this spring and thought he looked healthier than he has in several years. There\u2019s no question he\u2019s a truly elite shooter, so this might be worth a look for the Warriors.\u201d  DeVries has been on the NBA radar going back to his time at Drake when he won those conference players of the year honors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When former IU player and assistant Pat Knight was in Bloomington last fall, the former Indiana Pacers scout told the Media what he sees in DeVries.  \u201cWhen we were looking at him two years ago, he was early second-round, or late first, he could move up because he knows how to play and can shoot,\u201d Knight said.\u00a0 \u201cSo for me, now, after seeing him these last couple years, you\u2019re looking \u2014 and I hate putting pressure on kids \u2014 but is he a first-round talent? Yeah. (He) knows how to play. Shooting\u2019s a premium at that level, gym rat \u2014 it\u2019s everything coach (Pacers coach Rick) Carlisle would tell us in scouting he likes. Kid\u2019s got a great future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DeVries arrived at Indiana with a decorated college resume.  Prior to his time at IU, he scored 1,986 points (17.7 ppg), grabbed 626 rebounds (5.6 rpg), handed out 283 assists (2.5 apg) and had 139 steals (1.2 spg). He was a career 43.5% shooter overall to that point, including 36.7% from three on 6.7 attempts per game from long range.  DeVries\u2019 numbers dropped off during his lone season in Bloomington.  He\u2019s had more than a dozen NBA workouts leading up to the draft.\u00a0 And following a workout with the Pacers, DeVries suggested he was playing at a weight for IU that may have adversely impacted certain aspects of his performance for the Hoosiers.  \u201cI think it\u2019s kind of refreshing everybody on what I\u2019m capable of,\u201d DeVries said of what he hoped to show the NBA in his workouts. \u201cI think the improvements body-wise of being able to slim back down to probably be in my more natural position and then being able to move in space a little bit better, is probably the biggest thing. You are not going to change a whole lot of who you are in two months, but in that aspect you can.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several mock drafts that don\u2019t have DeVries being chosen in a couple weeks.\u00a0 But in that event, he seems certain to sign a two-way deal or at the very least earn a G-League roster spot after playing in the NBA Summer League and perhaps attending an NBA training camp. The 2026 NBA Draft is June 23-24 in Brooklyn, N.Y.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Five Indiana names make Time\u2019s Most Influential People in Sports 2026<\/strong>                                                                                                                                               Indiana made a strong showing on Time\u2019s latest influential sports list.  Time released its\u00a0\u201c100 Most Influential People in Sports 2026\u201d\u00a0on Tuesday. Five people with Indiana ties made the cut:  Indianapolis Colts CEO Carlie Irsay-Gordon, Indiana football coach Curt Cignetti, Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark, Las Vegas Raiders quarterback and former Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza and Sports analyst Pat McAfee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curt Cignetti-Cignetti made the \u201cTitans\u201d section. Time said two words will forever be associated with him: \u201cGoogle me.\u201d  \u201cThat\u2019s what Cignetti said at the national-signing-day press conference in 2023 when asked how he was going to sell his vision for the Hoosiers to high school recruits and players in the transfer portal,\u201d Time wrote. \u201cHis point: he was a winner.\u201d  \u201cIndiana, known more for basketball, hadn\u2019t done much in football, but Cignetti blew past all expectations,\u201d according to Time.  With Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza, Indiana went 16-0 and won the national title.  \u201cAfter Indiana\u2019s 27-21 victory over Miami in the title game, Google added a delightful Easter egg at the top of the results page for those who searched for Cignetti: \u2018Yup, he won,\u2019\u201d Time reported. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caitlin Clark-Clark made the \u201cIcons\u201d section. Time wrote that \u201cwhen the history of women\u2019s basketball is written, expect a chapter\u2014or two or three\u2014 on Caitlin Clark.\u201d  Time noted her \u201cshowmanship and three-point exploits, in both college and the WNBA, have brought unprecedented attention to the game.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fernando Mendoza-Mendoza made the \u201cLeaders\u201d section. Time called his success \u201cone of the great surprise college-football feats.\u201d  The Cal transfer \u201cthrew 41 touchdown passes, tops in the nation, and led the Hoosiers to a 16-0 record\u2013the first 16-win season in college football since the 1894 Yale Bulldogs.\u201d  Time mentioned that Mendoza donated $500,000 for multiple sclerosis research, citing his mother Elsa as inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pat McAfee-McAfee landed in \u201cInnovators.\u201d The former Colts punter signed a five-year, $85 million ESPN deal in 2023.  Time noted McAfee \u201chas awarded more than $5 million in cash and charitable contributions over the past two seasons\u201d through College GameDay kicking contests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carlie Irsay-Gordon-Irsay-Gordon made \u201cLeaders.\u201d She became the Colts\u2019 principal owner after her father Jim Irsay died in May 2025. \u201cShe is so committed to the success of her team that she frequently wears a headset on the sideline during games so she can hear how the coaching staff communicates,\u201d Time wrote.  She told Time: \u201cI would suggest it for anyone else that has to pay coaches and GMs millions and millions of dollars. It helps you make a less expensive mistake potentially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aliyah Boston says the Indiana Fever need to \u2018get a little tougher\u2019<\/strong>                                                                                                                                                              On Monday night in Washington, D.C., the Fever were already on the brink of losing their fourth one-possession game of the year. But with four seconds left and the Fever down one, Caitlin Clark nailed a game-winning 31-foot three-pointer to lift Indiana to victory.  The shot brought Indiana to a 78-76 win on Monday, but the team says there is still plenty of room to grow after a 6-5 start to the year.  \u201cI think that we\u2019ve got to get a little tougher,\u201d Fever center Aliyah Boston said. \u201cI know it\u2019s early on, but we\u2019ve got to get a little tougher. I think for us, just keeping the main thing the main thing, and that\u2019s focused on taking care of each possession, offensively and defensively.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fever blew a 14-point halftime lead and found themselves down by the final possession. Fever head coach Stephanie White would have liked to hold the lead, but she said the Fever can use Monday\u2019s game as another learning opportunity.  \u201cI think every opportunity we have to grow throughout the course of the game and throughout the course of practice is really important,\u201d White said. \u201cThese are situations that are going to pay dividends for us down the line. Being able to reframe and being able to stay together and come back together, I think, is an important lesson for our group.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Indiana continues through the regular season, White shared how valuable it will be to lean on the team\u2019s experience after playing in several tight games already.  \u201cWe\u2019ve played from behind a lot before, and now we\u2019ve got to learn to play with the lead,\u201d White said. \u201cThat\u2019s a different type of pressure. It\u2019s a different type of urgency that you need to have. I say it a lot, and it\u2019s true; it\u2019s not just coach speak. There\u2019s no substitute for experience. Each time we get an opportunity to experience it and then to come out on the winning side of it is important.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After Monday\u2019s nail-biting finish, Indiana now looks ahead to a home game against the Chicago Sky this evening. Coach White gave her keys ahead of Tonight\u2019s game. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to contain their guards,\u201d White said. \u201cThey have two great point guards in our league. Certainly, when you think about [Natasha] Cloud and Sky [Skyler Diggins] and their experience, championship-caliber players. We\u2019ve got to contain them, and we\u2019ve got to make sure we do a really good job of protecting our paint. When we do that, it allows us to do what we do best, and that\u2019s get out in transition, play fast.\u201d  The Fever (6-5) host the Sky (4-8) at 7:00 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Purdue University Men&#8217;s Basketball to play in-state opponent in exhibition game<\/strong>                                                                                                                    Purdue men\u2019s basketball will play Purdue Fort Wayne in an exhibition game on Thursday, October 22, the teams announced on Tuesday.

The first prospect camp is scheduled for Saturday, August 8, with the second camp slated for Saturday, August 22. Both sessions will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on those respective dates, with check-in starting at 9:30 a.m. at Winterholter Field.  The cost of each one-day camp is $100 per attendee, with registration available for baseball players entering grades 9 through 12.  Both prospect camps consist of a morning practice and an afternoon live scrimmage. Current Taylor coaches and players will provide all instruction, including specific training and drills for each position.  Additionally, participants will be provided lunch to eat with current TU baseball student-athletes and will receive a tour of the baseball facilities, including the Stillman Fieldhouse that houses a pair of baseball batting cages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TU baseball prospect camps have a long history of molding future Trojan student-athletes, with over half of the current TU baseball roster having attended one of these camps prior to joining the program.  TU&#8217;s baseball program has stacked success over the past five years, with each season producing 40-plus victories, including a program-record 56 wins in 2026, and five consecutive appearances in the NAIA National Tournament. That stretch of team achievements includes a national runner-up finish in the 2026 NAIA World Series and fifth-place finish in the 2023 NAIA World Series, as well as eight combined Crossroads League Regular Season titles and Crossroads League Tournament crowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The accomplishments expand further across the past 22 seasons of head coach Kyle Gould&#8217;s tenure, a run that includes 19 consecutive seasons with a winning record. Gould and his staff have coached nine Crossroads League Players of the Year and 10 Crossroads League Pitchers of the Year during that span.
