WATCH: Trayce Jackson-Davis Goes Up and Under For Early Basket

Early in Indiana's game with Michigan, Trayce Jackson-Davis caught the ball on the left block, and quickly spun around Will Tschetter. When Michigan center Hunter Dickinson came over to help, Jackson-Davis went under him and scored on the other side of the rim to give Indiana an early lead. Here's the video.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Throughout his four years at Indiana, senior forward Trayce Jackson-Davis has lived around the rim. It's served him well, and his plethora of spin moves and rips have helped him score more than 2,100 points in his career.

It was no different on Sunday, during his final game at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. Early in Indiana's game with Michigan, he caught the ball on the left block, and quickly spun around Will Tschetter. When Michigan center Hunter Dickinson came over to help, Jackson-Davis went under him and scored on the other side of the rim to give Indiana an early lead.

Here's great video of the highlight:

Jackson-Davis, Indiana's all-time leader in rebounds and blocked shots, is closing in on No. 3 on the scoring list as well. He was 56 points shy on the 1950s star Don Schlundt to start the game.

This is Indiana's final regular-season game of the year. The Big Ten Tournament is next week in Chicago, followed by the NCAA Tournament a week later.
