Chicago State UW Opens its big 10 conference schedule tonight at home against Michigan. Wisconsin

enters the game with a eight-no record. The Wolverines are six and one. They're coming off a 25-point

route of ranked Xavier in the Fort Myers tip off. The top three scores for first year coach Dusty

May are all transfer portal arrivals. Trade Donaldson transferred from Auburn, Roddy Gale from

Ohio State, Danny Wolf from Yale. The tip off at the Cole Center is scheduled for eight o'clock

this evening. Bucks forward Chris Middleton says he wants to be on the court more than anyone

else wants for him when asked by reporters Middleton couldn't offer a firm date for his return.

He had surgery on both ankles and he says he is progressing, but it is just slower. The

journal sentinel reports the all NBA performers says it's important to be smart and not return to

the lineup until he is ready. He has already missed nearly a quarter of Milwaukee's NBA schedule.

Middleton won't be playing with the Bucks meet Detroit tonight in the league's midseason tournament.

Last night Boston a winner against Miami 189 Atlanta 1224 New Orleans 112 Minnesota 109

the Lakers 80 and Chicago 128 102 over Brooklyn. From the Monday night football game Denver

with a win by final 41 32 Jake Juan Mcmillan returning interception for a game ceiling 44 yard

touchdown as the Broncos beat the Browns 41 232. The Packers are preparing for a Thursday night

game at Detroit defensive coordinator Jeff Hathley talked about the teams recent defense.

Those are two really physical games. I thought we played hard. I thought we hit. I thought we got

a blocks. I saw we tackled and I thought we gave everything we had. So for those guys to do that

twice within the week, I have a ton of respect for them and give them a lot of credit and then

recover and be able to get ready to do it again. Those are the guys that deserve all the credit.

Packer safety Xavier McKinney leads the NFC in fan voting for the pro bowl. He's one of several

Packer players with a chance to make the roster for the game. Tucker Kraft is having a good year.

He talked about facing the line. You know, Fordfield gets loud, a rectangle that places.

And then yeah, that's a place for the atmosphere thrives. Their defense will play good behind that.

So we'd like to we'd like to establish our offense as soon as we can. We don't have to use

silent cadence. You know, hopefully we get we'll get some of the fans leave early if we did

last Thanksgiving. So we're ready. That's a look at sports today on a Tuesday. I'm Phil Knee for

WRCO.
