Illinois basketball’s rise this season isn’t about one superstar hogging the spotlight—it’s about everyone buying into their role and chasing wins together. Even with NBA dreams and big personalities on the roster, Coach Brad Underwood keeps the team focused on what matters: the scoreboard. When everyone’s locked in on winning, it doesn’t matter who scores 20 or who gets fewer touches. That selfless approach is why Illinois sits near the top of the Big Ten. Do you think this kind of team-first mentality is the key to long-term success, or do star players need to shine to get noticed? #Sports #IllinoisBasketball #BigTen
