IU basketball is emerging as a legit contender for one of the top prospects in the 2025 class.
As it was announced by 247Sports National Basketball Director Eric Bossi, Top-20 2025 power forward Bryson Tiller is down to four schools including IU basketball, Kansas, Auburn and Georgia Tech.
Tiller has been on the radar for the Hoosiers for awhile now and even took a official visit to Bloomington last December.
“It was a great visit as well,” Tiller told 247Sports. “They have a great coach in Mike Woodson, a great staff and culture. It was kind of the same things, we wanted to look at how they developed players, especially at my position. They did a really good job of that.”
The 6-foot-10 power forward is an Atlanta (GA) native and plays for Overtime Elite. Last season, he averaged a near double-double of 12.2 points and 9.4 rebounds per game.
His recruitment has been on the quiet side but due to Indiana’s strong ties to Atlanta with Mike Woodson and Yasir Rosemond, IU basketball has always had a chance to land this talented prospect.
He is listed as the No. 20 overall by 247Sports. There is no public timeline at this time for his decision.
IU basketball currently only has one commitment in the 2025 class with four-star forward Trent Sisley.
HoosierIllustrated.com has seen Bryson Tiller many times and have been able to compile scouting notes on the five-star power forward.
Tiller is a highly athletic forward that has great size and length at his position. He is one of the best in the class at getting to his spots and finishing at all three levels of the floor. The 6-foot-9 forward is great about taking his defender off the dribble and scoring off the catch. While he can play off the ball, he has proven to be his best on the ball when he can create his own look. As a defender, his athletic ability and length make him lockdown at times. Tiller would be a perfect fit for Mike Woodson as he looks for more athletic, long forwards that can create their own shot.
