Youngest team ever gave UK basketball fans the most compelling drama ever | Lexington Herald Leader

One thing for sure about Kentucky’s 2017-18 season: It wasn’t boring.

Arguably the least experienced team in college basketball history was undeniably one of the most entertaining. Individually and collectively, sometimes from television timeout to television timeout, it was impossible to predict what might happen. This made for compelling basketball drama.

Highs: Most lopsided victory over Louisville since 1999, which made good on Quade Green’s promise of a Christmas present for UK fans. Winning at West Virginia despite trailing by 15 points at halftime. An inspiring run to the Southeastern Conference Tournament championship.

Lows: First four-game losing streak since 2009.
