Keion Brooks’ role may not have the glitz or glamour of the guard trio, but he’s playing it well

In the midst of the preseason previews done here at A Sea of Blue, who do you think I called the “most intriguing piece this season” for this current version of Kentucky?

(I’ll give you three guesses, but you’re only going to need one.)

Keion Brooks Jr.’s stats aren’t going to wow you through nine games. He’s averaging 7.0 points a game (seventh on the UK roster) on 49.1 percent shooting (fourth) and just 53.3 percent from the free-throw line on 15 total attempts (eighth) with 4.1 rebounds (sixth) per game.
