LUCAS' FIVE TAKES:
A developing, positive trend: when Nigel Hayes has attempted at least 10 free throws the Badgers are 6-0 this season. Was 9-of-14 vs Terps

Brevin Pritzl got nose dirty around the rim with bunch of hustle plays. Finished with 7 rebounds, 7 points incl big time flush on Happ feed

No escaping Bronson Koenig impact even tho not moving at 100%. Still demands attention & stretches defense. Had 2 key baskets early 2ndH run

Players from both teams deserve credit for playing through uneven officiating that deprived the game of much flow, rhythm. Whistled 48 fouls

Besides 20 pts, Ethan Happ played 29 min without turnover despite double teams. Has steals in 24 of 27 gm incl 16 straight. Had 5 vs Terps
