ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan men's basketball team will host the No. 11 Wisconsin Badgers during the Maize Rage's annual "Pool Party" on Wednesday (Feb. 7) at Crisler Center. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m., and will be live on the Big Ten Network with the broadcast team of Kevin Kugler, Robbie Hummel and Andy Katz.

Notes

• This will be the only regular-season meeting between U-M and Wisconsin. The No. 11 Badgers will be the third ranked Big Ten opponent the Wolverines have faced this season -- No. 14 Illinois (L, 88-73) and at No. 2 Purdue (L, 99-67). Winning three of the last five, U-M is 98-75 all-time against Wisconsin, with a 60-23 record in Ann Arbor.

• U-M is third in the Big Ten with 8.8 three-pointers per game. The Wolverines have had nine-plus long-range buckets in 13 games, with seven of 10 or more. That includes a season-best 13, twice -- at Oregon (Dec. 2) and McNeese (Dec. 29).

• Tarris Reed Jr. has seven-plus rebounds in five of his last six games, including his fourth and fifth games of 10-plus -- a career-best 15 against Rutgers (Feb. 3) and 10 at No. 2 Purdue (Jan. 23). With these 54 boards (9.0 rpg) during this stretch, he is now tied with Olivier Nkamhoua for the team lead at 7.0 per game.

• Reed tied his career best with five blocks against Rutgers (Feb. 3) -- the second time this season (Minnesota; Jan. 4). With those five, he leads U-M with 32 total, setting a new single-season best (31; 2022-23).

• Dug McDaniel has led the Wolverines in scoring the entire season with 16.8 per game. With 18-of-19 games in double figures, he has a U-M best six 20-plus point games, including his career-best of 33 (twice). In his second season, he has nearly doubled his freshman average (8.6 ppg) by +8.1 points.

• McDaniel is six assists away from recording a second straight season of 100-plus. He led U-M last season with 122 (3.6 apg). McDaniel (4.9 apg) has posted 11-of-19 games with five-plus assists.

• Terrance Williams II, who is averaging a career-best 12.5 points per game, continues to pace U-M with 43 total long-range buckets. Those 43 long-range buckets surpassed his career total (38) compiled in his three prior seasons. McDaniel is second with 40 three-pointers.

• Nearly 50 percent of Williams' offense comes from beyond the arc -- 109 of his 209 shot attempts have come from long range. He is shooting 39.4 percent.

• Over his last eight games, Nimari Burnett has nearly half of his assist totals, dishing 27 of his 59 (3.6 apg), five games of three plus and a career-best six at Penn State (Jan. 7).

• Nkamhoua has 18 games scoring in double figures while grabbing five-plus rebounds. Behind those numbers, he averages a career best for points (15.9) and rebounds (7.0). In addition, Nkamhoua is third on U-M with 58 assists (2.6 apg), with 12 games with three-plus assists.

• Will Tschetter is shooting 57.1 percent from long range -- 20-for-35. He has almost as many three-pointers as free throws made (21-for-30; 70.0 percent).
