3 Headed Monster: Backcourt Sparks Kentucky Basketball Win

Greek mythology had Cerberus. Godzilla had Monster Zero. Kentucky basketball has its trio of starting guards, Ashton Hagans, Immanuel Quickley, and Tyrese Maxey.

All are three-headed monsters, and all are darn near impossible to beat!

Kentucky Basketball used their beast of a backcourt to slay Vanderbilt (9-15, 1-10 in the SEC) in Nashville on Tuesday evening. The trio combined for 54 points, sparking the best second half of basketball that the Cats have played this season.

Kentucky trailed at the half by 9. The Cats outscored Vandy 51-28 in the second half, with Hagans, Quickley, and Maxey chipping in 19 rebounds, 11 assists, 5 steals, and two blocks while only turning the ball over 5 times.
