Jonathan Davis - Puts up 27 in road win Davis posted 27 points (8-15 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 7-10 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and three steals in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 82-76 win over Northwestern.

Impact Davis was on a run from Dec. 4 through Jan. 6 in which he averaged a scorching 25.8 ppg, but cooled off a bit afterwards with performances of 19 and 14 points. He got back on track Tuesday in what was his third-highest scoring output of the season, bringing his average to 22.1 ppg -- good for fifth in the nation. The timing of his baskets was also pristine, as he was able to answer with a bucket each time Northwestern appeared to be gearing up to make a run. The All-American candidate next draws a stiff test when the Badgers host Michigan State on Friday night.

Steven Crowl - Scores 10 in win Crowl totaled 10 points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 23 minutes during Tuesday's 82-76 win over Northwestern.

Impact Although Crowl didn't have many looks from the floor Tuesday, he was still one of five Badgers to score in double figures during the win. The sophomore has had inconsistent results for most of the season and has averaged 8.8 points and 4.6 rebounds in 23.4 minutes per game across his last five appearances.

Jonathan Davis - Scores 14 despite inefficiency Davis posted 14 points (4-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Thursday's 78-68 victory over Ohio State.

Impact Davis continued to have plenty of shot volume in Thursday's victory, but he converted just 22.2 percent of his attempts from the floor. However, he was still one of three Badgers to score in double figures, and he came within a rebound of posting a double-double against the Buckeyes. The sophomore has emerged as a strong candidate for the Wooden Award and has averaged 23.2 points and 10.0 rebounds in 37.4 minutes per game across his last five appearances.

Brad Davison - Paces Badgers on scoreboard Davison notched 25 points (7-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 37 minutes during Thursday's 78-68 victory over Ohio State.

Impact Davison's contributions for the Badgers have been somewhat overshadowed by Johnny Davis' breakout season, but the fifth-year player has been a key force for Wisconsin's success to begin the 2021-22 campaign. He's scored in double figures in eight of his last 10 appearances and has averaged 16.3 points and 3.7 rebounds in 35.4 minutes per game across that span.

Impact Wahl had limited production early in the season but has turned things around recently. He's scored in double figures in five of the last six games and has now scored 20-plus points in each of his last two appearances. The junior has converted 68.8 percent of his field-goal attempts across the last three contests and has averaged 19.0 points, 7.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 31.7 minutes per game during that time.
