Indiana Men's Basketball Plans to Represent United States at FISU America Games in Lima
Indiana University men’s basketball will represent the United States at the FISU America Games in Lima, Peru, July 20 to August 1, featuring 15 sports and a 13-day schedule. The USA will open group play against Peru and later face the Virgin Islands, with all group games streamed on YouTube and subject to change. The roster features seven transfers and several new recruits under second-year head coach Darian DeVries, returning players and a mix of guards and bigs. Several articles note the logistics are handled by UniUSA with BTI Events LLC, and the Hoosiers will wear USA jerseys for the event. Indiana announced the opener would be Tuesday at 2 p.m. local time against Peru, with the second group game set for Thursday at 6 p.m., and elimination rounds beginning after that. DeVries emphasizes the trip as a strong competitive experience focused on learning to win together, acknowledging some injuries and roster changes ahead of the games.
