Big basketball news as the Badgers start their French trip with a win. We talk about the importance of the trip and what it means for players like Chucky Hepburn, Stephen Crowl and Tyler Wahl. We talk culture and chemistry and why this trip is really about those two major items and not about winning games.

Next we take a look through the box score and highlight the good and bad from the opening match. Why the Badgers shooting 44% from deep is SUCH a big deal. Isaac Lindsey, one of my sleepers for this season, hit a couple three's in a very good sign. We also saw Markus Illver, an athletic wing with some shooting ability bang three triples -- he's a player the Badgers desperately need to break out offensively this season.

Finally we discuss the three player that will need to make the most of this trip, the two transfers Max Klesmit and Kamari McGee and the aforementioned Markus Illver. We talk about the the new roles both Klesmit and McGee will need to play this season.
