The 2023-24 Indiana basketball team will be leaning on ‘untapped potential’ next year. One of the players that many fans are hoping to take that next step and has that untapped potential is sophomore guard CJ Gunn.
CJ Gunn is one of three returning sophomores, Malik Reneau and Kaleb Banks included, that will be looking have much larger role for Mike Woodson and the Hoosiers next year.
Last year, Gunn’s minutes were very spotty at times and would usually only see time on the floor with the game pretty much decided. Overall, Gunn only averaged 7.5 minutes per game.
Gunn, a true shooting guard, has all the tools to really carve a role out for Indiana next season. Gunn is an extremely athletic guard that can create his own look both on and off the ball.
With his elite shooting ability that was seen at the High School level, he has a chance to step up and improve Indiana’s perimeter shot making. It really comes down to consistency at shooting behind the arc and overall defensive play for Gunn’s role to increase.
