What depth is there behind Nolan Winter and Austin Rapp, it's not clear, though assistant coach Joe Krabbenhoft did mention one name after day two of practice; Aleksas Bieliauskas, a freshman from Lithuania who has plenty of experience in U20 interntional FIBA basketball.
The starting lineup for the Wisconsin Badgers seems to be pretty settled. It will consist of two returners: Nolan Winter and John Blackwell. It will also feature the three-star transfers that head coach Greg Gard went out and recruited in: Andrew Rohde, Nick Boyd, and Austin Rapp. The starting five from 1-5 will look like: Nick Boyd, John Blackwell, Andrew Rohde, Austin Rapp, and Nolan Winter.
