Davion Mintz is (finally) playing the role he was brought in to play at Kentucky

In his first year in Lexington, Davion Mintz led Kentucky in total points (288), 3-pointers (56), assists (77) and double-figure scoring games (17). When he announced his return to school this offseason, the super senior became the first player since Randolph Morris (2006-07) to come back to UK after leading the team in scoring average.

Mintz’s first year at Kentucky was nothing short of a success. Hell, he might’ve been the only consistent bright spot on the roster from start to finish. The excitement surrounding his return to school was justified.
