Michigan basketball is looking to get back on track against No. 2 Purdue on Tuesday after falling to No. 11 Illinois 88-73 on Saturday.
Losers of six of their last seven, the Wolverines (7-11, 2-5 Big Ten) defeated rival Ohio State 73-65 on Jan. 15 to win their second Big Ten game of the season. Meanwhile, the Boilermakers (17-2, 6-2) went 2-0 last week after road wins over Wisconsin and Iowa.

Michigan will likely need big games from guard Dug McDaniel and forward Olivier Nkamhoua, who lead the team averaging 17.4 and 17 points per game this season, respectively. Both Wolverines are also shooting over 37% from 3-point range.
