(Milwaukee, WI) — Even though they were missing two important players, the Minnesota Timberwolves were able to rout the Bucks Tuesday night, 139-106. The Wolves led 76-45 at halftime. Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee in scoring with 25 points as the team lost for the third time in the last four games. The Bucks travel to Texas to take on the San Antonio Spurs Thursday night.
(Minneapolis, MN) — Minnesota was leading most of the game, but the Badgers led at the end Tuesday night. Guard John Blackwell connected on a game-winning 3-pointer as time expired, giving the Badgers a 78-75 victory. That’s 10 straight times Wisconsin has taken down its biggest rival. Braeden Carrington scored a career-high 21 points to follow Blackwell’s production. The Badgers will carry a three-game winning streak into Saturday’s Big Ten contest at home against Rutgers.
Wisconsin guard Nick Boyd is The Associated Press men’s college basketball national player of the week for Week 10. That comes after he helped the Badgers beat UCLA and then-unbeaten Michigan. Richie Saunders of No. 11 BYU was the runner-up after his big outputs in wins against Arizona State and Utah. UConn’s Silas Demary Jr., Miami’s Tre Donaldson and No. 2 Iowa State’s Joshua Jefferson earned honorable mentions. Hofstra guard Cruz Davis is a player to watch as one of the nation’s leading scorers.
(New York, NY) — Senior guard Chase Ross pushed his career points total over a thousand, but Marquette still came up a loser at St. John’s Tuesday night. Ross scored 20 points in the 92-68 defeat that dropped the Golden Eagles’ record to 6-and-12. Ross and freshman Nigel James Junior combined for 24 points in the first half, but both were scoreless until two-thirds of the way through the second half. Ben Gold and Sean Jones missed the Big East game. Marquette plays at DePaul Friday night.

(Green Bay, WI) — Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons is making no promises, but his recovery is going so well that he tells reporters he could be back by Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season. Parsons admits Week 3 or Week 4 is more likely, but he pledges not to go on Injured Reserve. He’s currently rehabbing the torn ACL he suffered in Week 14 of the 2025 season. With him out of the lineup, Green Bay lost its last five games.
EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge following his arrest in Florida. Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office arrest records show Addison was detained in Tampa at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino at 3:46 a.m. Monday. He was released on $500 cash bond in the afternoon. Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and coach Kevin O’Connell both declined to speak specifically about it at a season-ending news conference Tuesday. Addison served a three-game suspension to start the 2025 season for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. That stemmed from his drunken driving arrest the previous year.
