Indiana Basketball’s Bold Bet: Turkish Center from SMU Poised to Transform the Team’s Future
Yigitoglu brings proven production to Indiana’s frontcourt. During the 2025–26 season, he averaged 10.7 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks. He shot 62.8 percent from the field. His efficiency and rim protection made him one of the most sought-after big men in the transfer portal.
The addition also helps balance a Hoosiers roster that previously leaned toward perimeter-oriented talent. By securing a true low-post presence, Indiana strengthens its ability to control the paint on both ends of the floor.
