Ben Silva is IU Columbus’ go-to frontcourt scorer with a knack for big moments
In the 2024-25 season, Ben Silva emerged as one of IU Columbus’ most productive players, showing efficient scoring, rebounding, and a physical presence that plays well at the college level. He has delivered impact performances like a 25-point, 10-rebound outing in IU Columbus’ first program win, and earlier in 2024 he shot 8-for-11 from the field with 4 made threes in a strong tournament showing. His calling card is toughness and shot-making around pressure moments; he looks like a fit for teams needing a versatile forward who competes hard and can tilt a game without needing the ball every possession.
