Many fans reacted to Wiseman's performance with excitement.

@_Facci: "I have already seen enough out of James Wiseman to get excited that Indiana WILL unlock his potential!

Wiseman went 4-4 from the field for 8 points and 4 rebounds, 2 of which game on the offensive glass.

He’s meshed well with the starters tonight too, didn’t look out of place."
