The Wisconsin Badgers had their biggest recruiting class in recent years, taking four high school players in the Class of 2025: four-star in-state guard Zach Kinziger, three-star in-state center Will Garlock, three-star New Zealand guard Hayden Jones, and Lithuanian forward Aleksas Bieliauskas.
Diving into the international pool, the Badgers have seen success in recent years, landing recruits from overseas in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 classes.
Earlier last week, Jones got a chance to showcase his skills on the national scene, as he led New Zealand to a fourth-place finish at the FIBA U19 World Cup.
