After an impressive 40-point win in the season opener, the Kentucky Wildcats will retake the court this Friday against the Texas A&M Commerce Lions, the first of three games in the Wildcat Challenge presented by Kentucky Tourism.
While the Wildcats are coming off a blowout win, Texas A&M Commerce is coming off a blowout loss, losing by 32 points to No. 15 Texas A&M. The Lions were led by sophomore forward Jerome Brewer Jr. (13 points and five boards) and senior guard Kalen Williams (10 points and two steals).
Given that performance, along with the fact that Texas A&M Commerce was picked to finish seventh in the Southland Conference, Kentucky shouldn’t have too much of an issue on Friday night.
