American Guard Returns to Badgers Men’s Basketball Opponent

Caleb Love, one of the best college basketball players in the country, announced Wednesday that he will return to Arizona for the 2024-2025 season.

The Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team will face him and the Wildcats in the regular season opener on Friday, Nov. 15, at the Kohl Center.

Wisconsin faced Arizona last season, losing the contest 98-73 in Tucson, and Love racked up 20 points, seven rebounds, five assists and two steals in the game.

Love was almost a member of the Big Ten before last season, announcing he was transferring to Michigan, but ended up staying with the Wildcats.

Greg Gard’s Madison team will undergo a significant reorganization as junior guards Chucky Hepburn (Louisville) and AJ Storr (Kansas) transferred this offseason while senior forward Tyler Wahl graduated.

John Blackwell and Kamari McGee stand out as two returning players who could see significant increases in workload, while the team also added guard Camren Hunter (Central Arkansas), forward Xavier Amos (Northern Illinois) and wing John Tonje ( Missouri).
