MADISON, Wis. -- Michigan shot 18-of-24 from the foul line in Sunday's 83-72 win at Wisconsin. It was Michigan's best free throw performance -- as far as number of makes and percentage -- since Jan. 13 at Michigan State. The devil is in the details, though, as displayed by some late-game misses.
Wisconsin intentionally fouled Zavier Simpson with 3:09 left and Michigan holding an 11-point lead. Simpson entered the game shooting 49 percent on free throws. After missing several in the final minutes of that Michigan State game, the sophomore hasn't been able to find consistency at the line.
