Overview
- With 15.1 seconds left in overtime, Conor Enright drew a charge on Nick Boyd, then John Blackwell was called for a foul that sent Lamar Wilkerson to the line for the winning free throws with 2.8 seconds remaining.
- Lamar Wilkerson scored 25 points on 8-for-8 free-throw shooting, Sam Alexis added 19, Tucker DeVries had 16, and Enright scored 11 for Indiana.
- Wisconsin’s Nolan Winter posted a career-high 26 points and 12 rebounds, Nick Boyd scored 20, and John Blackwell finished with 18 after scoring 16 in the second half.
- Indiana led most of regulation but went without a field goal for the final 5:32 of the second half and did not score from the floor again until Wilkerson’s overtime bucket as Wisconsin erased a 13-point deficit.
- The result moved Indiana to 16-8 (7-6 Big Ten) and dropped Wisconsin to 16-7 (8-4), while Gard questioned the charge call postgame and social-media reaction widely condemned the late officiating; next up are Oregon at Indiana on Monday and Wisconsin at No. 5 Illinois on Wednesday.
