Jackson-Davis went 9 of 10 from the field and was aided by wingman Miller Kopp, who made 4 of 6 from 3-point range to add 12 points for Indiana (2-0). Twelve players scored for the Hoosiers. Jalen Hood-Schifino kicked in eight points, eight assists and five rebounds for Indiana.

No. 5 Kansas 82, North Dakota State 59

Jalen Wilson scored 11 points in the first eight minutes of the game as the Jayhawks demolished the Bison in Lawrence, Kan.

Wilson finished the first half with 17 points and led the Jayhawks with 21 points for the game, though he sat out much of the second half. The Jayhawks (2-0) were again without coach Bill Self, who served the second game of a four-game suspension imposed by the university.

North Dakota State (0-2) got 11 points from Grant Nelson and 10 from Boden Skunberg.

No. 9 Creighton 96, North Dakota 61
