Wisconsin Basketball to Lean on Core Contributors Down the Stretch

Wisconsin Badgers head basketball coach Greg Gard is working to turn things around after losing five of its last seven games.

The Badgers have responded to their brutal four-game losing skid by winning two of the last three contests. However, turnovers, defensive inconsistencies, and poor shooting from beyond the arc have become concerning trends this team desperately needs to correct.

Combo guard John Blackwell has returned to the Wisconsin Badgers lineup and has been a much-needed shot in the arm. However, it’s clear that the team’s starting five will play a pivotal role and log heavy minutes in the remaining weeks of the regular season.
