CAROLINA, Puerto Rico — Indiana basketball concludes its week-long trip to Puerto Rico with a rematch against Serbian professional team Mega Superbet at 11 a.m. Monday inside Coliseo Guillermo Angulo.
Spearheaded by a 70-19 run, the Hoosiers turned a 23-point deficit into a 93-71 victory over Mega Superbet on Saturday at Coliseo Roberto Clemente.

Indiana is still without Bosnian freshman center Andrej Acimovic, who's scheduling a visa appointment with the U.S. Embassy and hopes to be in Bloomington by the end of August, and junior guard Jason Drake, who has a lower-body injury and didn't travel.
Junior guard Nick Dorn is battling an undisclosed injury and hasn't participated in either of the first two games, though he's with the team in Puerto Rico.

FINAL
Indiana 81, Mega Superbet 80
Wilkerson drove and dished to Bailey on the right block to give the Hoosiers the lead, and Wilkerson had a strong defensive stand to force a contested fadeaway at the buzzer, sealing Indiana's undefeated trip to Puerto Rico.
Q4, 39.6
Mega Superbet 80, Indiana 79
An and-one from Alexis and floater from Ristic have Indiana within one point. Mega Superbet has the ball and a full shot clock.
Q4, 3:18
Mega Superbet 80, Indiana 72
Wilkerson made another triple, and an aggressive Tucker DeVries has found his touch at the rim and free throw line. But Mega made a pair of free throws in between an empty Indiana possession, and a two-possession game extended to an eight-point lead.
Q4, 8:14
Timeout, Indiana.
Mega Superbet 74, Indiana 63
The Hoosiers pulled within six points after and-one's from Wilkerson and Tucker DeVries, but Mega responded with five unanswered points to extend its lead back to double digits.
END Q3
Mega Superbet 69, Indiana 57
Indiana trimmed its deficit to 10 points with a corner triple from Sisley, and the Hoosiers sent three players to the line for five free total throws in one possession late in the frame, which brought them back to within 10.
Mega made a pair of free throws with nine seconds remaining to extend its lead to 12 at the end of the quarter.
Q3, 6:04
Mega Superbet 52, Indiana 39
A more aggressive Wilkerson has all nine of Indiana's second-half points. He made the last of three free throws to get his first points of the game, made two more free throws and hit back-to-back 3-pointers from the left wing — the last of which was a few feet behind the line.
HALFTIME
Mega Superbet 50, Indiana 30
Mega made four free throws to close the half. The Hoosiers' offense continues to be driven by Conerway, who has 18 points and ended the frame with a 15-foot step-in right-handed toss off the backboard.
Indiana has made only two 3-pointers through the opening 20 minutes, and neither Wilkerson nor Tucker DeVries have scored.
Q2, 1:39
Timeout, Indiana.
The Hoosiers trails 46-28 with 1:39 remaining in the first half. Markovic had a turnaround jump hook over Tucker DeVries and nailed a right-wind 3-pointer shortly thereafter. Mega Superbet has found its offensive rhythm again and is riding a 13-2 run.
Q2, 4:42
Mega Superbet 33, Indiana 26
Conerway has been Indiana's best player Monday, and it hasn't been particularly close. He's up to 14 points, has drawn five fouls and has totaled four steals.
The Hoosiers, once down 19, have cut their deficit to seven points with active defensive hands and more aggression at the rim. Indiana is on a 19-7 run.
END Q1
Mega Superbet 26, Indiana 15
After DeVries called timeout, Indiana hit its stride offensively. Conerway made a contested layup at the rim against Milwaukee Bucks second-round pick Bogoljub Marković, and once the margin reached 26-7, Conerway and Enright each made 3-pointers in the two ensuing possessions.
Conerway made a pair of free throws with eight seconds left and the Hoosiers finished the opening frame woith momentum.
Q1, 1:55
Timeout, Hoosiers.
It's deja vu for Indiana, which trails 21-5 late in the opening frame. The Hoosiers began the scoring with an offensive set in which Conerway hit Bailey for a lob at the rim, but Indiana's lone field goal since came on a turnaround from forward Sam Alexis.
The Hoosiers are struggling with turnovers, and they haven't yet made a 3-pointer. There haven't been many transition looks for Indiana, either.
Indiana has used four of its five active scholarship bench players: Alexis, forward Trent Sisley and guards Jasai Miles and Aleksa Ristic. Sophomore forward Josh Harris is the lone scholarship Hoosier who hasn't entered the game yet.
11:06 a.m.
Indiana will start its same five: guards Conor Enright, Tayton Conerway and Lamar Wilkerson and forwards Tucker DeVries and Reed Bailey.
11 a.m.
Indiana and Mega Superbet have arrived at their respective benches, and the two teams are going through introductions.
Tipoff is set for 11:08 a.m.
9:30 a.m.
Indiana has arrived at Coliseo Guillermo Angulo. Nick Dorn, wearing red shorts and a warmup shirt, is the first on the court. Dorn's status remains unclear for Monday.
Pregame thoughts, things to watch
Indiana already validated the purpose for its Puerto Rico trip in its comeback victory Saturday over Mega Superbet. Facing adversity for the first time, the Hoosiers rallied together and appeared much further along from a chemistry perspective than expected for a team with no returners and only eight weeks of practice together.
That said, it's possible Indiana coach Darian DeVries lessens the playing time for his senior starters in guards Conor Enright, Tayton Conerway and Lamar Wilkerson and forwards Tucker DeVries and Reed Bailey.
Tucker DeVries played 30 minutes in the Hoosiers' win Saturday, and Conerway and Bailey each eclipsed 20 minutes.
