Wisconsin: Tucker Plays with Nasal Injury



Who is that Masked Man?: In Wisconsin’s 91-88 loss at Wake Forest on Tuesday, Alando Tucker suffered a nasal injury while chasing after a rebound late in the first half. After ruling out a concussion, the trainer allowed Tucker returned in the second half with an awkward mask that compromised Tucker’s defensive play. Tucker quickly discarded the mask and led the Badgers with 27 points in the loss. Upon returning to Madison, Tucker saw a ear, nose and throat specialist and was fitted with an appropriate-sized mask. Early returns on the mask seem positive as Tucker led Wisconsin with 16 points in a 71-55 victory over Pepperdine on Sunday. [12/05/05]
