Well, that sure was fun. How about we go ahead and relive it?
The No. 6 Kentucky Wildcats took down the No. 11 Providence Friars 61-53 in the first round of the 2023 NCAA Tournament on Friday night. It was Kentucky’s first win in the tournament since 2019.
Antonio Reeves led the Wildcats in scoring with a game-high 22 points, including five made three-pointers. Oscar Tshiebwe added eight points and an insane 25 rebounds — the most by a Kentucky player in an NCAA Tournament game since 2000.
