How did Wisconsin basketball transfers perform in win over UW-Platteville?
Wisconsin basketball secured a 69-53 exhibition victory over UW-Platteville on Wednesday.
Despite holding a 45-41 advantage with just 10 minutes remaining in the bout, Wisconsin received ample offensive contributions from its class of 2025 transfer cohort in the 16-point victory.
Veteran guard Nick Boyd, who joined the program from San Diego State, finished the contest with 11 points, three rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes of action. His layup with roughly five minutes to spare ballooned UW’s edge to 14, 59-45, essentially icing the game.
Forward Austin Rapp, who played for the Portland Pilots a season ago, tallied 14 points, seven rebounds, two assists and two steals in 27 minutes alongside center Nolan Winter, who led the team with 17 points, 15 rebounds and three dimes. Rapp did miss seven 3-pointers and turned the ball over seven times, but he showcased his offensive aggressiveness with a team-high 12 field goal attempts.
Virginia transfer Andrew Rhode notched seven points, three rebounds, two assists and two steals in over 21 minutes of play, including five points within two minutes in the second half. Rhode also scored five points and was active with three steals in Wisconsin’s exhibition against Oklahoma on Oct. 24.
All three playmakers figure to contribute in a large capacity for Wisconsin throughout the regular season alongside both Winter and star guard John Blackwell. Gard’s unit opens the regular season on Nov. 3 against Campbell at the Kohl Center, with tipoff set for 7:00 p.m CT.
