It’s only the beginning of the college basketball season, but it’s safe to say that Kentucky basketball has gotten its “Kentucky good” back.
There’s no argument that Kentucky has not performed to its usual standards in recent years. Even with having as dominant of a player as 2022 National Player of the Year Oscar Tshiebwe on the roster for two seasons, there was still an obvious absence of something missing in Lexington.
The Wildcats are just five games deep into the season thus far, but it’s clear this year’s team has the talent, energy and, most importantly, the fun that it has been missing.
