NBA Draft Combine starts today

May 11, 2016 By Bill Scott

Nigel Hayes

Wisconsin’s Nigel Hayes and Marquette’s Henry Ellenson will try to put their best foot forward for the pro scouts over the next several days.  They’ll join about 70 other players who were invited to the NBA Draft Combine which opens today in Chicago.

Ellenson has already signed with an agent, which means he can’t change his mind and return to school.

Hayes did not sign with an agent, which means he’ll have ten days after the combine ends to decide if he wants to continue with his pro plays, or return to the Madison for his senior season with the Badgers.

Former Whitefish Bay Dominican standout Diamond Stone of Maryland is also at the combine, in advance of the June 23rd NBA Draft.

Wally Ellenson walks away from Marquette basketball

April 22, 2016 By Bill Scott

MarquetteGoldenEagles2Wally Ellenson will not return to the Marquette men’s basketball team next season.  Coach Steve Wojciechowski confirmed Thursday that Ellenson has quit the program, soon after his brother and teammate Henry Ellenson decided to turn pro.

Wally Ellenson will continue with the Marquette men’s outdoor track team this spring, as a four-time All-American in the high jump.  He has one year of eligibility left in both basketball and indoor track, and his future plans are not known.

Ellenson transferred to Marquette after two years with Minnesota, and he averaged tow points and two rebounds in eight minutes per game this season.

Report: Ellenson to turn pro

Marquette men’s basketball freshman Henry Ellenson will reportedly turn pro.  ESPN says Ellenson will declare himself eligible for this summer’s NBA Draft and he’s expected to sign with an agent, which means he can’t change his mind.

The 6’11” forward out of Rice Lake is projected by many as a Top-Ten draft pick.  Ellenson set eight freshman records at Marquette while averaging 17 points and ten rebounds a game.

Ellenson led the Golden Eagles to a 20-13 record this past season but did not make a post-season tournament.

Marquette evens score with Creighton

February 25, 2016 By Bill Scott

MarquetteGoldenEagles2Freshman forward Henry Ellenson collected his 16th double-double of the season, scoring 22 points and pulling down 16 rebounds to lead the Marquette Golden Eagles to a 66-61 win over the Creighton Blue Jays in Omaha, Nebraska on Wednesday night.

Marquette let a 15-point lead slip away, then buckled down defensively and got a big basket and pair of free throws from Ellenson to hang on for the win.

Marquette (18-10, 7-8 Big East) let a lead slip away against Creighton less than two weeks ago in Milwaukee and fell to the Blue Jays.  This time they held on for the win.

Marquette forced 14 turnovers, including seven by Blue Jays guard Maurice Watson Jr.

Creighton missed all nine of its first-half three-point attempts before finishing 3 for 21 beyond the arc.

Marquette won despite a short bench.  Freshman center Matt Heldt was out with a left knee sprain and sophomore guard Sandy Kohen III was benched for disciplinary reasons.

Marquette returns home to face top-ranked Villanova on Saturday.  The Wildcats lost to Xavier on Wednesday night.
