Badgers G Kamari McGee confidence “through the roof” after career night

The Wisconsin Badgers defeated the Michigan Wolverines 64-59 on Tuesday, potentially keeping their season alive as the season nears an end.

A big reason for the win? Surprisingly, backup point guard Kamari McGee, who played 14 key minutes as Chucky Hepburn’s reinforcement.

McGee has struggled to crack the rotation at times this season, battling to win that backup point guard role, but the guard played his best game of the year at the most crucial time, potentially solidifying a role in the lineup as March comes.

The 6’0 guard scored six points on 3/4 shooting, while grabbing a key offensive rebound and dishing out an assist.
