The writers at 247Sports came together yesterday to rank their All-Big Ten First, Second, and Third, teams with the season hopefully a few months away.
Wisconsin had more players on all three teams combined than any other school, with a number of teams having two players on the list. The outstanding second half of the season for the Badgers floor general D’Mitrik Trice earned him the highest spot among any Wisconsin player on the list. Trice was part of the second team backcourt, alongside Minnesota star Marcus Carr and Michigan State starting guard Rocket Watts.
Nate Reuvers, Wisconsin’s leading scorer from a year ago at 13.1 points per contest, came in on the third team alongside his frontcourt mate Micah Potter. Potter, Reuvers, and Trice are all projected senior starters on a team with championship aspirations in Madison.
