Eleven turnovers plagued the Minnesota Golden Gophers’ chances to knock off the Michigan Wolverines in the semifinals of the Big Ten tournament Saturday. Minnesota had five players in double figures, but hot shooting by the Wolverines was tough for the Gophers to stop in an 84-77 loss. Minnesota will now await their NCAA Tournament seed during the selection show Sunday night.
The Rundown
The Gophers started the game with three turnovers, including poor passes and a sequence where Jordan Murphy dribbled off his foot. Mortiz Wagner hit back-to-back three pointers to put Michigan up by 10 points.
