You are what your numbers say you are, and for Kentucky, that means it’s a bad shooting team with the Wildcats ranked No. 138 nationally in 3-pointers made and No. 243 in 3-point percentage. It’s even worse when you separate name-brand competition from buy games, Mark Pope‘s group now a combined 24 percent from deep against Louisville, Michigan State, North Carolina, Gonzaga and Indiana.

Individually, Brandon Garrison is the best shooter on the team against power-conference foes at 50 percent — albeit on low volume (2-4). For players with at least a dozen attempts on the season, Otega Oweh leads the way at 37.
