BLOOMINGTON — Indiana basketball forward Tucker DeVries scored his 2,000th career point on Wednesday night with a 3-pointer late in the second half of a 98-51 win over Alabama A&M.

“I think it's a credit to all the hard work he's put in,” Darian said. “I recognize the fact that he just doubled me up in points, so I didn't know how to feel about that in the moment.”

Darian was Northern Iowa’s starting point guard from 1994-98 and finished his career with 1,084 points (10.0 points per game). His son has been a far more prolific scorer while following his father from Drake to West Virginia.
