There was plenty to blame for Kentucky‘s loss at LSU. One optimistic fan may point to Sahvir Wheeler‘s injury; “the engine,” Calipari called Wheeler in the postgame press conference. Losing the engine four minutes into the game clearly hurt Kentucky, particularly the flow of the offense.
TyTy Washington‘s cramps hurt Kentucky’s prospects too. The team isn’t equipped to run without its two main floor generals and its two leaders in minutes per game. Davion Mintz brought heart and a couple of daggers off the bench, but the offense completely fell apart with both Wheeler and Washington M.
