Indiana Basketball: Five in-state players Indiana should try to land in the class of 2018
By Michael Foy
3. Damezi Anderson 6-7 SF
Anderson is a smooth 6-foot-7 wing with a lot of skill and upside. He averaged 24.0 points and 7.6 rebounds per game as a junior, quietly making a name for himself playing in South Bend. In the state of Indiana, the majority of the talent is localized around Indianapolis. Little focus is stressed on the northern Indiana area, but Miller should change that.
Anderson is quickly garnering more national attention as he continues to play well in the summer circuit. As a result, he has picked up interest from schools such as Notre Dame, Michigan, Purdue, UConn, Michigan State, and Xavier.
Anderson has made visits to Bloomington, and Indiana has expressed interest in the young prospect. The Hoosiers haven’t recruited the South Bend region as of late, and the last time they missed out on a four-star from the area was Demetrius Jackson. He ended up leading Notre Dame to back-to-back Elite Eights.
