Wisconsin released its injury report ahead of Sunday’s clash with the Illinois Fighting Illini in the Big Ten Tournament final.
All of the Badgers starters and primary players are good to go, according to the report. That includes star point guard Chucky Hepburn, veteran forward Tyler Wahl and young guard John Blackwell, who are all currently battling minor ailments.
Hepburn missed Wisconsin’s win against Northwestern in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinal, while both Wahl and Blackwell have played through their respective minor injuries.
Illinois, meanwhile, is fully healthy for the contest.
