Thompson completed his redshirt senior year this past season, but has elected to use his extra year of eligibility granted by the NCAA in light of the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on athletics to return to the Hoosiers.
He formed a frontcourt duo with Trayce Jackson-Davis, who is currently testing the NBA waters, this past season. The two were named team captains prior to the season and Thompson ended the year earning All-Big Ten Honorable mention status and the Big Ten Sportsmanship award.
Thompson started in all 35 of Indiana’s games in 2021-22 and scored 11.1 points per game, pulled in 7.5 rebounds per game and even drifted to the perimeter for a few 3-point attempts. He additionally blocked 24 shots throughout the season, tied with Jordan Geronimo for second on the team.
