Men’s basketball: No. 14 Wisconsin entering UW-Green Bay game with goal of minimizing turnovers against press

In its last game before final exams, the University of Wisconsin-Madison men’s basketball team will host UW-Green Bay Wednesday night at the Kohl Center.

The 14th-ranked Badgers (9-2) are victors of five straight, and are coming off of a 93-84 win over Marquette. The Phoenix (4-5) have lost three of their last four games.

Wisconsin led by as much as 30 against UW-Green Bay last year, but saw that margin dwindle to three before winning 84-79. Turnovers served as the primary reason for the Phoenix’s comeback — UW coughed up the ball 26 times against their full-court press.
