The Fighting Illini will look to slow down the trio as they try and build off a big win over Michigan on Sunday. The Fighting Illini went to Ann Arbor over the weekend and exploded for 62 points in the second half to pick up a 93-73 victory.
The win was their second in a row after they had dropped three straight by double figures. They had their worst loss in school history two weeks ago against Duke, but have bounced back in a big way in wins over Iowa and the Wolverines. Kasparas Jakucionis has been the team’s top scorer at 15.4 points per game, while Tomislav Ivisic has also been good averaging a team-high 7.7 rebounds per game and 12.6 points per game.
