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.

Pirates call up former Angels pitcher Michael Darrell-Hicks and send Hunter Stratton to minors
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Pittsburgh Pirates reliever Michael Darrell-Hicks is back in the majors just over two weeks after the Los Angeles Angels had designated him for assignment. The Pirates called up Darrell-Hicks on Tuesday and sent right-hander Hunter Stratton to Triple-A Indianapolis. The Pirates needed a fresh arm one night after using five pitchers in a 5-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers. The 27-yera-old Darrell-Hicks went 1-0 with a 9.39 ERA in six appearances with the Angels before getting designated on June 8. The Pirates claimed him off waivers and sent him to Indianapolis, where he worked two scoreless innings before getting called up. 'It's been a lot to digest,' Darrell-Hicks said. 'Obviously the major leagues is everyone's goal coming up, so I'm very proud of myself in terms of that. Not satisfied with how really things have gone for myself, but I'm just working every day to get back to a feel that I want to create on the mound and just feeling like myself out there.' The 28-year-old Stratton had allowed seven runs over 2 2/3 innings in three games with Pittsburgh this year. He owns a 2-1 career record with a 4.70 earned run average and one save in 47 games. 'He's pitched so well for us in the past,' Pirates manager Don Kelly said. 'That's what I told him last night, is just continue to work on those things. It was a byproduct of we needed some innings out of the pen and just needed to get a fresh arm up. (I told him to) go down and continue to be himself and continue to work on the things he has.' ___ AP MLB:

Minnesota Timberwolves' $1.5 Billion Sale Approved By NBA
A $1.5 billion deal for former MLB star Alex Rodriguez and e-commerce mogul Marc Lore to purchase the Minnesota Timberwolves was approved by the NBA on Tuesday, following a yearslong dispute with former owner and billionaire Glen Taylor. Billionaire Glen Taylor backed out of an earlier agreement to sell the team, leading to a ... More months-long arbitration process. Getty Images The NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the sale of the controlling interests in the Timberwolves and the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx from Taylor to Lore and Rodriguez, with the transaction expected to close later this week, the NBA announced. Rodriguez and Lore, the Wonder Group's chief executive, submitted a $1.5 billion bid for the Timberwolves in April 2021 with financial backing from Dyal Capital Partners, a private equity firm linked to former Google CEO Eric Schmidt. Taylor backed out of the deal in March 2024 and claimed Lore and Rodriguez missed a deadline to submit a final payment for the Timberwolves and Lynx and other terms of their agreement, though Lore and Rodriguez disputed this and said they submitted paperwork for the deal ahead of the deadline. An arbitration panel ruled in favor of Rodriguez and Lore in February, requiring Taylor to sell the franchises. Taylor has a fortune valued at $2.9 billion, making him the 1,302nd-wealthiest person in the world, according to Forbes' latest estimates. We valued the Timberwolves as the 28th-most valuable NBA franchise in October 2024, ranking 28th at a $3.1 billion valuation—more than double the amount agreed to in the 2021 deal. Surprising Fact Billionaire Michael Bloomberg reportedly agreed to join the group to purchase the Timberwolves as they invested an additional $600 million in the team in June 2024, though it's not immediately clear how much Bloomberg contributed to the investment or how much of the team he would own. A spokesperson for Bloomberg declined to comment to Forbes at the time. A deal transferring ownership of the Timberwolves and Lynx to Rodriguez and Lore follows failed rounds of mediation. Rodriguez, a three-time MLB MVP, and Lore initially purchased a 40% stake and planned to purchase an additional 40% stake by a deadline set for March 2024. Taylor released a statement just before the deadline, claiming the prospective buyers lacked the money to complete the deal and failed to meet unspecified terms of the agreement. At the time, Taylor said the Timberwolves and Lynx were 'no longer for sale,' as Rodriguez and Lore argued money to acquire the franchises was available.
