John Tonje went almost 35 minutes without missing a field-goal attempt to lead No. 18 Wisconsin to a 86-70 blowout of UCLA in the Big Ten tournament quarterfinals on Friday in Indianapolis. Tonje connected on his first nine shots from the floor and went 6-of-6 from 3-point range for a game-high 26 points. The fifth-seeded Badgers (25-8) made a Big Ten tournament record-tying 19 of their 32 attempts from beyond the arc in the game. Wisconsin matched the mark Iowa set in 2022 when it hit 19 of 29 in a win over Northwestern. The Badgers advance to Saturday's semifinals to face No.
