"Blackwell has become the most consistent scorer for a Badgers team with hopes for a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament. He's even showed some impressive rebounding prowess while maintaining offensive production over his last three games, averaging 22.7 point and 9.0 rebounds over that span. On top of that, he's had to resume more ball-handling responsibility in the absence of Max Klesmit (lower body), and he's protected the basketball relatively well with just five total turnovers in that three-game set."
