Northwestern (14-13) bounced back from a three-game losing streak with a dominant 70-49 win over Ohio State last Thursday. Nick Martinelli was one of four Wildcats to score in double-figures in the win, leading the team with 18 points and 5 rebounds in his 24th game with at least 15 points this season.
The junior forward has taken on a more prominent role since senior guard Brooks Barnhizer (foot) and graduate student guard Jalen Leach (torn ACL) suffered season-ending injuries this month. Martinelli currently leads the Big Ten in scoring with 19.7 points per game.
With a 5-11 conference record, the Wildcats are currently 16th in the Big Ten, just one game behind Iowa, Minnesota, and USC, who are tied for 13th.
Minnesota (14-13) fell 69-60 against Penn State on Saturday at home, marking their second-worst performance of the season as they shot just 33.9% from the field. Senior guard Femi Odukale led the Golden Gophers in scoring with 15 points, while fifth-year senior forward Dawson Garcia added 11 points. With 19.4 points per game, Garcia ranks just third in the conference in scoring, behind Martinelli and Wisconsin guard John Tonje.
The Golden Gophers, currently 6-10 in conference play, have dropped their last three home games and look to bounce back tonight.

Philadelphia Phillies acquire OF Harrison Bader from Minnesota Twins, reports say
For the second time in two days, the Philadelphia Phillies and Minnesota Twins hooked up for a deal before Thursday's 6 p.m. trade deadline. The Phillies are acquiring outfielder Harrison Bader from the Twins for a pair of prospects, according to multiple reports. The Phillies are sending outfielder Hendry Mendez and right-handed pitcher Geremy Villoria, according to The Athletic. ESPN's Jeff Passan was first to report the trade. Bader, 31, hit .258/.339/.439 with a .778 OPS and a 2.8 bWAR in 96 games this season with Minnesota. His splits this season are even — he has a .779 OPS vs. righties and .774 OPS against lefties. He plays all three outfield positions, though he's played mostly in left field this season. He also grades out well defensively. The 31-year-old signed with the Twins in February. The Phillies will be his sixth team since 2022. Bader will add a needed righty bat to the Phillies' outfield. Where he fits into the puzzle is the looming question. The Phillies acquired "legitimate" closer Jhoan Duran from the Twins on Wednesday night for a pair of top 100 prospects, catcher Eduardo Tait and pitcher Mick Abel. Duran, 27, brings a high-velocity arm to the back of the Phillies' bullpen, and he has one of the most popular on-field entrances among MLB closers. He throws 100 mph fastballs and 97.5 mph "splinkers." After trading for Duran on Wednesday, Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski told reporters in Chicago that the Phils weren't done looking to improve. The club was done shopping for bullpen arms but still was looking to add another bat, preferably a righty. Bader fits that description. Mendez was the Phillies' No. 12-ranked prospect, according to He's hitting .290/.374/.434 with a .808 OPS in 85 games in Double-A in 2025. Villoria has started five games, posting a 4.50 ERA in the Dominican Summer League.

MLB Trade Rumors: Updates on Mets-Robert, Alcantara, Padres-Miller Before 5 PM Deadline
We are just hours away from the trade deadline, and unsurprisingly, the MLB trade rumors are swirling at a frenzied pace as playoff contenders look to make a big addition before 5 PM ET. Let's take a look at the latest rumblings from the trade market, including updates on Sandy Alcantara, the New York Mets' pursuit of a center fielder, and the chase for relief arms. San Diego Padres predicted to make a big move before deadline, linked to Mason Miller San Diego Padres general manager AJ Preller is reportedly being very aggressive before the 5 PM ET deadline. The Athletic MLB insider Ken Rosenthal fully 'anticipates' the Pads to make a major move on Thursday due to Preller's proven track record. They have already been linked to Cleveland Guardians All-Star Steven Kwan and Boston Red Sox star Jaren Duran. However, speculation grows Athletics stud closer Mason Miller is being aggressively pursued by San Diego. New York Mets aggressively pursuing Luis Robert trade The Mets reportedly have been looking for an upgrade in center and have been linked to Chicago White Sox veteran Luis Robert Jr. since last year. Despite reports of an asking price that will be too high for New York, MLB Network insider Mark Feinsand reports the club 'has been one of the more aggressive teams in their pursuit of Robert, with one source taking it to another level by calling New York 'the frontrunner.'' Mystery team emerges in Sandy Alcantara trade chase Miami Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara remains among the top starting pitchers up for grabs before today's MLB trade deadline. Various reports have suggested the price remains high for clubs like the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Yankees, and New York Mets. However, MLB insider Jim Bowden believes he will be moved today and claims there is a mystery team that has jumped into the chase for the two-time All-Star. Could he be Plan B for the Houston Astros if their pursuit of Dylan Cease fails? Arizona Diamondbacks still have two big trade chips after Eugenio Suarez trade The biggest name in the MLB trade rumors this month was Arizona Diamondbacks All-Star Eugenio Suarez. Well, he is now off the block after being shipped off to the Seattle Mariners late on Wednesday night. However, they still have two impact chips up for grabs in Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly. The Yankees, Astros, Red Sox, Cubs, and Blue Jays are all reportedly looking for starters and likely will be targeting the two D-Backs pitchers today. New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers could benefit from a late buyers market Multiple teams are still looking for additions to the bullpen, including the Dodgers and Yankees. However, after several arms have come off the board in the last five days, ESPN reports that 'and at some point on Thursday, the teams dealing away players might now outnumber the number looking to add.' Which means, despite missing out on other players, LA and New York could end up getting an impact reliever on Thursday for a fair rate. Dylan Cease remains at the top of Houston Astros trade 'wish list' There have been various reports about the Astros' pursuit of an ace before 5 PM ET, and that Padres pitcher Dylan Cease is a target. However, he is much more than just one of several targets. 'The Astros are making a big push for Dylan Cease. With one source saying the starter is Houston's 'main target,''MLB Network's Mark Feinsand reported on Wednesday night. Pittsburgh Pirates likely to hold on to Mitch Keller? Pittsburgh Pirates starter Mitch Keller has been linked to quite a few MLB trade rumors before today's deadline. Including reports of interest from the Yankees. However, despite it being in the club's best interest to move him while interest is high, Ken Rosenthal reports that the 'Pirates are likely to keep right-hander Mitch Keller.' That could take a big option off the board for New York.
