It’s not the feel-good runaway victory Big Blue Nation wanted going into Christmas break — not yet, anyway — but Kentucky still leads Bellarmine by eight points at halftime with some of the Wildcats’ questions being answered at the break.
Can this team make shots? Well, they’ve already knocked down seven 3-pointers on 16 attempts, surpassing the game total for makes vs. St. John’s (four) and matching the volume in just 20 minutes.
Can someone step up at point guard with Jaland Lowe out? Jasper Johnson is doing just fine, going for eight points, five assists and two rebounds with just one turnover in 14 minutes.
