Indiana basketball recruit Aleksa Ristic had 22 points and eight assists Monday to lead Serbia to an 84-65 win over France in EuroBasket Under-20 play. Rustic made 8 of 13 shots from the field.
He is averaging 13.7 points and 6.3 assists the past three days as Serbia went 3-0 in Group D. Serbia plays Ukraine on Wednesday in the Round of 16.
The 6-foot-4 19-year-old committed last month to the Hoosiers over Oregon and Georgia Tech, among others. It was a late addition for Darian DeVries to the 2025 class, and Ristic is expected to be on campus after this tournament.
He averaged 13.9 points, 3.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game last season while shooting 39.3% from 3-point range in Serbia’s pro league.
