The Golden Gophers enter the year after finishing 19-15 in 2023-24, their first winning season since 2018-19 and good for ninth in the Big Ten Conference. Dawson Garcia returns as Minnesota’s unquestioned leader and one of the conference’s best overall players, with Mike Mitchell Jr. looming as the team’s primary three-point threat. Garcia led the way in Minnesota’s season-opening win over Oral Roberts, where he torched the Golden Eagles for 30 points and four three-pointers.

Chris Crutchfield’s Mavericks will look to start fast in Minneapolis after finishing 2-13 in road contests last season. They’ll also aim to continue their rise under Crutchfield, who added six more wins last year (15-18) after finishing 9-23 in his first year (2022-23) at the helm. With last year’s top scorer (Frankie Fidler) gone, Omaha will lean on returners Tony Osburn and JJ White to step up offensively, who combined for 30 points in its season opener against Mid-America Christian.
