The No. 6 Wisconsin Badgers dropped their second consecutive game in a 75-69 defeat to the No. 2 Purdue Boilermakers, marking the first time they’ve lost two in a row since the third game of the season.

Offensively, the Badgers struggled to hit jump shots, shooting 3/19 from three, while hitting only 42 percent of their shots.

While the Badgers shot 52 percent on twos as a team, guard A.J. Storr had a tough night, hitting only 4/15 of his shots, while missing all four of his threes.

Defensively, Wisconsin played well enough, taking away Purdue’s threes, but the Boilermakers were able to hit 47 percent of their shots, with Zach Edey, Braden Smith, and Lance Jones all scoring at least 18 points.
