Wisconsin Offers 2025 In-State Shooting Guard Zach Kinziger

Greg Gard and the Wisconsin coaching staff offered a scholarship to 2025 shooting guard Zach Kinziger after their advanced camp.

Wisconsin basketball has been keeping tabs on 2025 in-state guard Zach Kinziger from De Pere for quite some time now, and after an impressive showing during their advanced camp, Greg Gard and his staff decided it was time to pull the trigger -- offering him his first Power 5 scholarship.

"I've always liked the way they play and grew up cheering for them my whole life," Kinziger said.

The 6-foot-3, 175-pound shooting guard is coming off a sophomore season where he averaged 15 points per game and three assists for the Redbirds. Kinziger holds offers from Cal Poly, Illinois State, Toledo, and UW-Green Bay.

Coach Gard and his assistants have now sent out eight total offers in the 2025 recruiting cycle, five of which have gone to in-state recruits.

Why Zach Kinziger Makes Sense for Wisconsin

The Wisconsin basketball program has a long-standing tradition of blue-collar sharpshooters holding down the two-guard spot, and Zach Kinziger is cut from the same cloth.
