Gus Yalden - Could play Monday Yalden (undisclosed) is with the team and might play Monday against Virginia, Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Tyler Wahl - Bounces back Friday Wahl registered 18 points (5-5 FG, 8-12 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 29 minutes during Friday's 78-68 win over Robert Morris.

Impact Wahl recovered from a string of bad outings against Tennessee and Providence, finishing with a team-high 18 points alongside John Blackwell. The 6-foot-9 senior has been productive finishing around the rim, but struggles at the charity stripe continue to plague the fifth-year forward. Wahl, a career 62.0 percent shooter from the stripe, will look to improve his production from the line and become a more dynamic threat for the Badgers.

John Blackwell - Scores 18 in win Blackwell supplied 18 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 8-10 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals in 18 minutes during Friday's 78-68 win over Robert Morris.

Impact Blackwell finished tied for a team-high 18 points across just 18 minutes of action as Wisconsin took down Robert Morris. The 6-foot-4 freshman has been a spark off the bench for the Badgers to open the 2023 season, averaging 10.3 points, 2.8 rebounds and 0.8 steals on 16.8 minutes per game. Blackwell has jumped out to a fast start with the Badgers, and he will look to continue building upon his productive start during Monday's matchup with Virginia.

Connor Essegian - Bad across six minutes Essegian logged zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist across his six minutes during Wisconsin's 72-59 loss Tuesday at Providence.

Impact Essegian missed all of his field goals Wednesday. He logged fewer than 10 points across three games Wisconsin played during the first half of November 2023. Regardless of injury and team status, Essegian should be scoring better. The sophomore guard averaged more than 10 points across 35 games he played during his freshman season.

Carter Gilmore - Plays 13 minutes Tuesday Gilmore ended with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 13 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 loss to Providence.

Impact Gilmore chipped in two points, two rebounds and one assist as the Badgers were dominated by Providence on Tuesday. The 6-foot-7 junior has seen an average of 10.7 minutes across Wisconsin's first three games, averaging 2.7 points, two rebounds and 0.3 assists. With the addition of AJ Storr and John Blackwell, along with the return of most of the Badgers' key rotation pieces, Gilmore appears to have been relegated to a smaller role this season.

Chucky Hepburn - Struggles to get going Hepburn registered eight points (2-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and three rebounds across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 loss to Providence.

Impact Hepburn closed an abysmal 2-of-10 from the field, contributing eight points and three rebounds in a wire-to-wire loss against the Friars. Most notably, the junior point guard recorded two turnovers and no assists in the contest, as Wisconsin had nothing going offensively against Providence. Hepburn and the Badgers will look to rebound in a home matchup with Robert Morris this Friday.

John Blackwell - Provides boost in loss Blackwell ended with 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and five rebounds over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 loss to Providence.

Impact Blackwell converted 5-of-10 shots from the field, finishing with 11 points and five rebounds in a game where it appeared there was a lid on the rim for the Badgers (21-of-62 FG as a team). The 6-foot-4 freshman has brought energy off the bench for a struggling Badgers squad, but he remains firmly behind the more experienced members of Wisconsin's backcourt.

Tyler Wahl - Struggles in loss Wahl closed with 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-7 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one block in 33 minutes during Friday's 80-70 loss to Tennessee.

Impact Wahl converted just 2-of-7 attempts from the charity stripe, finishing with 10 points and eight rebounds in Friday's loss to Tennessee. The 6-foot-9 graduate student had a terrible miss at the line early in the second half and was visibly rattled at the line during the rest of the contest, leading to some heart-breaking misses down the stretch. Wahl (61.8 percent career shooter from the stripe) and the Badgers (who finished 14-of-23 at the line as a team Friday), will look to regroup ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Friars.

Steven Crowl - Effective in loss Crowl logged 14 points (4-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one block in 26 minutes during Friday's 80-70 loss to Tennessee.

Impact Crowl flirted with a double-double as the Badgers dropped their first game of the season to Tennessee on Friday. The 7-foot junior has been a stalwart member of the Badger's frontcourt for the last two seasons, and he will be an everyday starter for Greg Gard in 2023. Crowl will look to help Wisconsin get back on track during Tuesday's showdown with Providence.
