John Tonje - College Basketball News & Rumors

Scoring back up Tonje closed with 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 75-63 victory over Rutgers.

Impact Tonje started the season on a tear, averaging 22.3 ppg over the Badgers' first nine contests. He's slowed down since then, posting just 12.5 ppg over the team's next six games, with Monday's output representing his best scoring total of that stretch. What's encouraging is that he did it while getting to the free-throw line only twice, which has been one of his primary scoring methods so far in 2024-25. The Badgers will need the two-time transfer to get in stay hot if they hope to be contenders in Big Ten play.
