Jaden Ivey had a nice night with 17 points, four rebounds, five assists, and one steal. Nebraska shot 45.6% from the field, 42.1% from three, and made just five of their 13 free throws.
Illinois hosted Michigan and beat the shorthanded Wolverines 68-53. This game was much closer than the final score indicates as Michigan was down just one point with eight minutes remaining. Kofi Cockburn continues to dominate as he led the team with 21 points, 10 rebounds, and one blocks. Trent Frazier added 18 points, three rebounds, seven assists, and one steal. Michigan shot 36.7% from the field, just 10.0% (1-10) from beyond the arc, and made just eight of their 14 free throws.
