The sophomore leads the team in minutes per game (31.5) and is scheduled for surgery Monday.

His initial rehab process will begin in 2-3 weeks according to the school.

Shortly after announcing Trice’s injury (along with fellow guard Kobe King, who has a knee injury), the Badgers were blown out 82-63 by Marquette to fall to 4-7 on the season.
