CJ Fredrick and Adou Thiero reflect on Tennessee win

Kentucky men’s basketball players CJ Fredrick and Adou Thiero reflected on Saturday’s win over No. 5 Tennessee and their mindsets going forward on Monday.

Fredrick scored three of the team’s five 3-point baskets in the win while Thiero did not miss any of his four free throws on Saturday, scoring his first points against a ranked opponent all season.

The win against the Volunteers was huge for both the players and coaches, as the team had been struggling following the streak-snapping home loss against South Carolina.

“It’s been tough just because we want to win so bad in that aspect,” Fredrick said.
