WISCONSIN BADGERS NEWS

Isaac Lindsey - Returns against Huskers Lindsey (lower body) supplied zero points (0-1 FG) and one steal in two minutes during Saturday's 73-63 OT loss to Nebraska.

Impact Lindsey has been a fringe rotation option for the Badgers this season, but a recent lower-body injury has kept him sidelined for the last four games. While he was able to return Saturday, his availability doesn't change the fact that starting point guard Chucky Hepburn rarely leaves the court, as Hepburn logged a team-high 42 minutes. Lindsey will continue to compete with Kamari McGee -- who saw three minutes Saturday -- for the spot of primary backup to Hepburn, though neither is likely to gain fantasy relevance any time soon.

Connor Essegian - Solid in win Essegian supplied 18 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 79-74 OT victory over Penn State.

Impact Essegian has stepped up in a big way since Tyler Wahl's ankle injury in early-January and kept up the pace even with everyone available. By scoring at least 15 points in his last three games, Essegian has worked his way into a key role for a Badgers team a little too reliant on a high-volume shooter in Chucky Hepburn.

Tyler Wahl - Looks better in win Wahl accumulated 16 points (6-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal over 42 minutes during Wednesday's 79-74 OT victory over Penn State.

Impact Wahl and his team hadn't looked strong in the last few weeks and this was his best individual game since returning from an ankle injury that hampered him in early-January. If the Badgers are to be a threat later in the season, Wahl will have to keep up the pace into March.

Chucky Hepburn - Scores 17 in loss Hepburn logged 17 points (6-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Sunday's 54-52 loss to Northwestern.

Impact Hepburn scored at least 15 points in a third straight game but the Badgers have lost twice in that time while he's shot 39.5 percent from the floor. For a team capable of strong defense, taking and making better shots has been a challenge that limits consistent success.

Isaac Lindsey - Has body injury Lindsey has a lower-body injury, according to Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Impact Lindsey's lower-body injury could be the reason why he sat out all three games Wisconsin played in between Jan. 27 and Feb. 6. Currently, his next opportunity to play is at Penn State on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should not be surprised if Lindsey must sit out again though.
