Impact The newly crowned Big Ten Player of the Year will hope to lead to the Badgers into the NCAA tournament with a little momentum after Wisconsin was unable to capture sole possession of the conference title following its loss to Nebraska. While it's possible that Davis may still be feeling some residual effects of the injury in his return to action, even a compromised version of the 6-foot-5 sophomore would be a welcome addition for the Badgers after he finished the regular season with averages of 20.0 points, 8.1 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.6 blocks in 33.9 minutes per game. Wisconsin is set to open conference tournament play in the quarterfinal round Friday, when the team plays the winner of Thursday's Michigan State-Maryland matchup.

Tyler Wahl - Five steals in defeat Wahl recorded 13 points (4-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and five steals over 39 minutes during Sunday's 74-73 loss to Nebraska.

Impact Wahl remained productive on the offensive side of the ball Sunday with his fifth consecutive double-digit scoring total, but he also stepped up defensively with five steals for a second straight game. The junior was a relatively consistent performer for the Badgers to close out the regular season, as he averaged 12.9 points and 5.7 rebounds in 32.7 minutes per game across his last 10 appearances.

Brad Davison - Scores 20 despite inefficiency Davison recorded 20 points (5-15 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Sunday's 74-73 loss to Nebraska.

Impact Davison shot just 33.3 percent from the floor during Sunday's narrow loss, but he led the Badgers in scoring and nearly propelled the team to the win in the regular-season finale. He's now scored at least 10 points in four of his last six appearances, and he averaged 13.2 points and 4.0 rebounds in 35.2 minutes per game across that span. While coach Greg Gard is optimistic that Johnny Davis (ankle) will be available to begin the Big Ten Tournament, Davison figures to take on a leading role for the Badgers if Davis misses additional time.

MARCH 6, 2022 • 247SPORTS.COM

Johnny Davis - Optimistic for tournament play Coach Greg Gard is optimistic that Davis (ankle) will be available for the Badgers' first Big Ten Tournament game Friday, Andy Katz of NCAA.com reports.

Impact Davis has been diagnosed with a right ankle sprain after leaving Sunday's loss to Nebraska early in the second half. Although he was unable to return to the regular-season finale, he could be available to begin postseason play since he'll have four full days to recover. However the Badgers plan to monitor how Davis responds to treatment in the coming days before determining his status for the start of the Big Ten Tournament.

Johnny Davis - Dealing with ankle sprain Davis suffered a sprained right ankle during Sunday's 74-73 loss to Nebraska, Evan Flood of 247Sports reports.

Impact Davis suffered the injury early in the second half when he was fouled by Trey McGowens, who was assessed a Flagrant 2 and ejected. Davis was declared out for the rest of the contest with a lower-body injury, which has since been specified as a sprained ankle. A candidate for the Naismith Player of the Year, Davis will have four full days to recover before Wisconsin takes the for the Big Ten tournament Friday. He had 10 points (4-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one block in 12 minutes Sunday and finished the regular season with averages of 20.0 points, 8.1 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.1 steals in 33.9 minutes over 28 games.

Johnny Davis - Out with lower-body injury Wisconsin ruled Davis out from returning to Sunday's game against Nebraska due to a lower-body injury, Dale Ryman of NewsChannel 7 Wausau reports.

Impact Davis appeared to be holding his right knee after he retreated to the locker room when he exited early in the second half, but Wisconsin isn't providing any specifics on the nature or extent of his injury. More information should be available in the days to come, but at the very least, Davis' lower-body injury puts his availability in question for when Wisconsin begins Big Ten tournament play Friday in the quarterfinal round. The Naismith Player of the Year candidate finishes the regular season with an average of 20.0 points per game over his 28 appearances.

Johnny Davis - Exits after hard foul Davis headed to the locker room after taking a hard foul while going up for a transition layup during Sunday's game against Nebraska.

Impact Trey McGowens was assessed a level-two flagrant and ejected for striking Davis in the face on the play, though Davis also appeared to be holding his knee after being landed on by McGowens. The specifics of the injury remain unclear, as is Davis' availability for the rest of Sunday's contest.

Lorne Bowman - No update on status Bowman (illness) isn't expected to play Sunday against Nebraska, Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Bowman has missed the past four games with an illness, and it appears his absence will continue Sunday versus the Cornhuskers. The freshman guard will have some extra days to potentially get healthy ahead of the Big Ten Tournament, since the Badgers have secured a double bye and won't play again until Friday.
