Senior guard Max Klesmit is set to come back after a three-game absence due to injury. Here is how he could help Wisconsin at the Big Ten tournament.

On March 8, the Wisconsin Badgers closed out regular season play with a rather frustrating loss of 86-75 to Penn State at the Kohl Center. Despite having a good start, where they drained six of their first seven three-pointers and held a 40-35 halftime lead,

The Wisconsin Badgers got some good news going into the Big Ten Tournament. Reportedly, fifth-year guard Max Klesmit has returned to practice and is expected to be available on Thursday when the Badgers are in action for their conference tournament.

Wisconsin guard Max Klesmit left little doubt on his status for the Badgers' Big Ten Tournament opener on Thursday.

In his social media post, the Neenah native referenced John Blackwell's selection as an All-Big Ten Honorable Mention. A season ago, Blackwell was named to the All-Big Ten Freshman Team. Blackwell is the first Badgers sophomore to receive any postseason conference honor since Chucky Hepburn in 2022.

Wisconsin guard Max Klesmit will miss the game today against Penn State, per a spokesman. He is expected to be cleared and play in the Big Ten Tournament. This will be the third game in a row that he's missed with a lower body injury.

Wisconsin was without Klesmit on Sunday for their loss against Michigan State. They opted to move Kamari McGee to the starting lineup and it's fair to assume they will do the same thing again tonight. There were no other notable injury announcements for either team.
