Well, that was certainly a basketball game.
On Tuesday night in Rupp Arena, the No. 19 Kentucky Wildcats (5-2) found themselves in a dogfight with a pesky in-state opponent, the Bellarmine Knights (2-6). Led by head coach Scotty Davenport, Bellarmine employed an aggravating, yet effective, style of play against the ‘Cats: move the ball, move it some more, then move it five more times. Even if it took the entire 30-second shot clock (and boy did it), the Knights were content to keep hunting for better looks. The ball would hardly touch the floor on half of their possessions.
