The Illinois basketball team took a loss to the Maryland Terrapins, 66-63, and many Illini players struggled in the defeat.

Multiple Illinois players scored zero points and the team was not good from three-point range. The Orange and Blue also struggled to hit free throws, which was a big reason they lost and it has been a struggle all season.
