BBN Jam Sweet 16: (1996) Anderson & Walker vs. (2020) Quickley & Richards

It’s going to take a lot of Big Nick Energy for the 2020 Kentucky Wildcats to take down the 1996 team and advance to the finals of the Untouchables region.

Nick Richards will have the help of SEC Player of the Year Immanuel Quickley when they go toe-to-toe with two underclassmen from Rick Pitino’s National Championship team, Derek Anderson and Antoine Walker. Physicality is certainly on the 96 squad’s side but the stats aren’t as lopsided as one might think.

TALE OF THE TAPE

Nick Richards has a height advantage over the 6’9″ Walker, but would he have the upper hand?
