Wisconsin's Jon Leuer will have surgery on his broken left wrist on Tuesday and be out of the lineup for the foreseeable future.

The Badgers' 6-foot-10 junior was averaging 15.4 points and 6.2 rebounds. He was also shooting 36 percent from behind the 3-point line.

Big loss for the Badgers. Still a very good team, just not quite as good as they were with Leuer on the floor.

He broke the wrist vs Purdue and proceeded to go 1/10 after that. Tough guy, I cant believe he was able to finish the game.

I will be at the Ohio State-Wisconsin game on Saturday. This is unfortunate. I was hoping to see both teams at their best.

This should give the Buckeyes a nice competitive advantage to walk away with a huge Big Ten win. Ohio State definitely needs this one for its Tournament resume. It's a must win.

The Big Ten has had more than their share of injuries.

It should give OSU a competative edge....just like it gave Wisky one when OSU was without Turner at Wisky. ;)

But don't EVER count out a Bo Ryan coached team. The guy is a great coach IMO. One of the best in the country.

Ryan is just as clutch as anyone going agreed. I've never seen anyone do so much with what would generally be considered marginal talent. He consistently has his teams over achieving imo.

huge loss for the badgers, he was really starting to become their top guy. they are going to need taylor to build on his performance from the Purdue game
