The University of Wisconsin men’s basketball team opens the 2020-21 season with debatably their best roster since their Final Four run in 2015. While they lost a gritty guard in Brevin Priztl, the team returns six different players who started games last season.
Coming off a hot second half of the season and winning the Big Ten regular-season title while posting a 21-10 record, the Badgers have earned high expectations from the media. ESPN analysts predict the Badgers to be a top-10 program in college basketball this season, relying on the experience and added depth.
Many seniors, transfers, coaches and draft prospects were unable to live out their final season this past year, but the Badgers are back in full force in preparation for the upcoming season.
