Kentucky tips off the 2019-20 season on Tuesday night vs. No. 1 Michigan State. While previewing the game with reporters this afternoon, John Calipari suggested there’s still a chance that junior center Nick Richards will play after spraining his left ankle in Kentucky’s first exhibition vs. Georgetown College a week ago.
“Still day-to-day,” Cal said of Richards’ status. “We’ll see if he can give us a little bit of practice time today — probably nothing live — and see what he can do tomorrow. If he’s timid with it, he shouldn’t play. Not in this game.
