February 24, 2020 By Bill Scott

The Wisconsin Badger men’s basketball team extended their winning streak to four games, knocking off the Rutgers Scarlet Knights 79-71 in Big Ten Conference action on Sunday at the Kohl Center.

The Badgers improved their home record to 13-1 and moved into a four-way tie for second place in the Big Ten with Iowa, Michigan State and Penn State.

The Badgers (17-10, 10-6 Big Ten) lost the first meeting against the Scarlet Knights (18-10, 9-8) back in December.  Rutgers scored 23 second-chance points on 14 offensive rebounds in that first match-up.  On Sunday, the Badgers held Rutgers to just seven offensive rebounds and Wisconsin actually won the second chance points battle 7-6.

Micah Potter, who wasn’t eligible during the first meeting, led the Badgers with 18 points and nine rebounds.  He hit 4 of 5 three-pointers and 6 of 8 shots overall.

Badgers take down unbeaten Michigan

January 20, 2019 By Bill Scott

The Wisconsin Badgers ended their two-game Big Ten losing streak, knocking off previously unbeaten Michigan 64-54 on Saturday at the Kohl Center.

Wisconsin (12-6, 4-3 Big Ten) got a huge performance from their best player, senior Ethan Happ.  He scored 26 points and added 10-rebounds and seven assists for the Badgers.  No other Badger player scored in double figures, but five other Badgers scored at least six points.

Nathan Reuvers and Aleem Ford had nine points each.  Brad Davison added eight points.  D’Mitrick Trice and Kobe King each tallied six points.  King also added five rebounds.

Neither team spent much time at the free throw line.  Michigan hit just 5 of 11, while the Badgers were 7 of 9 with Happ hitting two out of four in the final two-plus minutes of the game. [Read more…]

Badgers comeback falls short in loss at Maryland

January 15, 2019 By Bill Scott

The Wisconsin Badgers continue to struggle with slow starts and it happened again on Monday night in College Park, Maryland.  The Badgers put on another second half charge but their comeback fell short, falling to the Terrapins 64-60.

The Badgers shot 26.9% (7 of 26) from the field in the first half and missed all eight of their three-point attempts, trailing 33-15 at halftime.

Maryland stretched the lead to 21 points early in the second half and maintained a comfortable lead for half of the second half.  Ethan Happ left with 10:38 left in the game with his fourth foul and the Badgers trailed 51-33.  That’s when Wisconsin went on a 8-0 run to pull within 10 (51-41).

The Badgers eventually tied the game on a Nathan Reuvers three-pointer with 3:11 left to play and took the lead 60-59 when Brad Davison hit a three with 2:02 left.

Maryland’s Anthony Cowan hit a long three with 44 seconds left to put Maryland up 62-60, then added a pair of free throws for the final margin.  Reuvers twice had open looks at three’s from the point, only to see both rim out. [Read more…]

Andy Van Vliet

The Wisconsin men’s basketball team hit 15 of 27 three-pointers (55.6%) and rolled to a 87-53 win over the New Zealand Breakers on Thursday morning in Tauranga, New Zealand.

Junior Andy Van Vliet made his first start as a Badger and led the way with 14 points.  Sophomore point guard D’Mitrik Trice added 12 points, while freshmen Kobe King and Nathan Reuvers each scored 9 points for Wisconsin (2-0).

The Badgers changed their starting lineup.  Besides sophomore Brevin Pritzl, coach Greg Gard went with freshman Brad Davison, redshirt freshman Aleem Ford, Van Vliet and junior Charlie Thomas.  That group helped the Badgers jump out to a 11-0 lead.

Defensively, the Badgers held the Breakers to 29.7% shooting from the field and 3-for-21 (14.3%) from three-point range.

The Badgers now head to Melbourne, Australia for the third game of their five game trip.  They’ll face the Hawthorn Magic on Friday.
