Former Notre Dame guard Markus Burton becomes one of top transfers to join Indiana

The 5-foot-11 guard averaged 23.5 points per game last season and is Indiana’s sixth transfer addition, according to coach Darian DeVries.

  • On Monday, Indiana Hoosiers coach Darian DeVries announced that all-conference point guard Markus Burton has transferred to the program from Notre Dame.
  • Before his collegiate career, Burton scored 2,273 points at Mishawaka Penn, and he tallied 1,315 points in 69 games for the Fighting Irish before a left ankle injury limited him to 10 appearances last season.
  • A former ACC Rookie of the Year, Burton was a second-team all-ACC selection in 2024-25 when he averaged 23.5 points per game and finished his career shooting 43.8% from the field and 33.2% from beyond the arc.
  • Indiana has secured six transfers, with Burton joining 6-6 forward Darren Harris from Duke, 6-3 guard Bryce Lindsey from Villanova, 6-5 guard Jaeden Mustaf from Georgia Tech, 6-11 forward Aiden Sherrill from Alabama, and 7-2 center Samet Yigitoglu from SMU.
  • DeVries plucked the 5-foot-11 Burton out of this year's transfer portal as one of two top 25 players added to the roster, signaling the coach's aggressive recruitment strategy.
