Indiana’s clutch, multi-level forward with Hoosier legend status
Christian Watford was a 6-9 forward for Indiana who blended stretch shooting, rebounding, and big-moment shot-making—most famously the buzzer-beater against No. 1 Kentucky in 2011. In his Indiana career, he finished with 1,730 points and 777 rebounds, hit 42.3% from three, and ranks among the program’s all-time leaders in rebounds, free throws, and points. The differentiator is poise: he could score inside or outside, defend multiple frontcourt spots, and deliver under pressure. If you want a forward with toughness, versatility, and ice-in-the-veins confidence, Watford is your guy.
