Iowa senior Justin Johnson had one of the greatest shooting performances in school history when he made eight 3-point baskets against Indiana on Jan. 2.

Six of his treys, including a turnaround bank shot from about 40 feet, came during the final two minutes of the second half and helped Iowa trim a 13-point deficit down to two points.

Indiana still escaped from Carver-Hawkeye Arena with a 79-76 victory, but Johnson has been mired in a shooting slump ever since.

He has combined to make just two 3-point baskets in the last three games and has only made eight treys in the five games since catching fire against Indiana.

So perhaps Johnson needs to face Indiana again to break out of his slump.
