MADISON, Wis. — Michigan couldn’t overcome another woeful outside shooting performance and an overwhelming second-half flurry in Sunday’s 77-63 loss to No. 15 Wisconsin that ended with a brawl breaking out at the Kohl Center.
During the postgame handshake line, Michigan coach Juwan Howard and Wisconsin coach Greg Gard got into a heated exchange. Howard hit a Wisconsin assistant Joe Krabbenhoft in the head with a punch and freshman forward Moussa Diabate and sophomore forward Terrance Williams II also appeared to throw punches during the scuffle before the teams were separated.
Hunter Dickinson finished with 21 points, Eli Brooks scored 14 and DeVante' Jones added 11 points, seven assists and six rebounds for Michigan (14-11, 8-7 Big Ten), which shot 16.7% from 3-point range (4-for-24) and trailed by double digits over the final 10:31.
