If there was one negative takeaway from Kentucky’s exhibition opener against Georgetown College on Sunday evening, it was freshman forward Kahlil Whitney’s goose egg performance.
In 22 minutes of action, Whitney was the lone Wildcat on the roster without a single basket, finishing with zero points (0-5 shooting), zero rebounds, zero assists, zero steals, and one block in the 80-53 victory.
On Friday, though, the 6-foot-7 freshman out of Chicago, IL completely flipped the script.
In 27 minutes of action, Whitney finished with 15 points (7-13 shooting), five rebounds, three assists, and three blocks, thriving on both ends of the floor.
