Unlike last week, Kentucky wasted no time pulling away in its second preseason exhibition game. The Wildcats jumped all over Kentucky State from the start and now lead by 30 points at halftime, 50-20.
In the beginning, John Calipari started the same five as Friday night’s exhibition against Georgetown, rolling out DJ Wagner, Antonio Reeves, Justin Edwards, Adou Thiero, and Tre Mitchell to open the game. The Wildcats trailed only momentarily when the Thorobreds’ Josiah Mitchell hit an early three-pointer to go up 3-2.
