The latest Big Ten Injury Report officially lists Dylan Harper of Rutgers as questionable for Monday night.

The Scarlet Knights host Wisconsin in a conference clash. 

Harper, a freshman who is averaging 22.3 points per game, five rebounds and five assists, missed the last game for Rutgers as well. He has an “illness” noted for his reason for being questionable.

The 6-foot-6 Harper is the son of former NBA star Ron Harper, Sr., and former Rutgers standout Ron Harper, Jr. 

More reports from those on-site have confirmed that Harper is warming up ahead of tip. 

If Harper were to miss the game, that would greatly benefit Wisconsin’s chances of picking up a key Big Ten Conference road win.
