After a standout game in his fifth career start, Wisconsin forward Tyler Wahl will look to keep the momentum going against a talented Ohio State team. Although Wahl hasn’t had the most eye-popping numbers this season, his work on defense and clutch baskets have been crucial to the Badgers down the stretch.
Wahl will likely matchup against Ohio State forward E.J. Liddell, who leads the Buckeyes in rebounds, steals and blocks. Liddell is also second in scoring with 14.1 points per game.
After Iowa’s upset loss to the Indiana Hoosiers on Thursday night, an opportunity has opened for the Badgers to take sole possession of second place in the Big Ten with a win against the Buckeyes.
