The 33 games during the regular season will lead into the Big Ten Tournament at the United Center in Chicago, March 10-15. This marks the first time that all 18 teams in the conference will be invited to the conference tournament in March.

Of the 33 games listed above, the first two — against NDSU and North Dakota — are exhibition games. It's also noteworthy that the games against San Francisco, Stanford, and St. Louis or Santa Clara will be played at neutral sites.

Minnesota brings back just two members of last year's roster: Isaac Asuma, who played 24 minutes per game, and Grayson Grove, who was redshirted as a freshman. The new-look team will be led by head coach Niko Medved, who was hired after the University of Minnesota fired Ben Johnson last March.

Jaylen Crocker-Johnson, who followed Medved to Minnesota from Colorado State, will be a key player as a 6-foot-8 forward in the starting lineup. The players starting alongside him are yet to be revealed, but it's a good bet that fellow transfers Cade Tyson, Bobby Durkin, Langston Reynolds and Chansey Willis Jr.

• G: Chansey Willis Jr. (6'2'' junior)
• G: Langston Reynolds (6'4'' senior)
• F: Bobby Durkin (6'7'' junior)
• F: Cade Tyson (6'7'' senior)
• F: Jaylen Crocker-Johnson (6'8'' junior)

It's also possible that Asuma cracks the starting lineup. Either way, Medved knows he'll be competing with an undersized roster.

"We're a little bit undersized, but I think we've got some tough guys," Medved said when fall camp opened in late September. "Listen, just because a guy's big doesn't mean he's a great rebounder or he's a smart player and he's a tough player and all those things. But yeah, I do think we're going to be a little bit undersized at times this year in this league, but that's OK. We gotta find a way to mitigate that and find what our strengths are and leverage those."
