COLUMBUS, Ohio — One week after Luka Garza became the Iowa men’s basketball program’s all-time leading scorer, another Hawkeye became the program’s all-time assist king.
Redshirt senior point guard Jordan Bohannon dished out career assist No. 613 with 2:28 remaining in No. 9 Iowa’s Sunday contest with No. 4 Ohio State in Columbus. Bohannon stood at the top of the key before passing left to Joe Wieskamp, who swished a 3-pointer to give Bohannon the record.
The Marion, Iowa, native also holds the Hawkeye record for most 3-pointers (343 and counting).
