When energy and effort are in question, it helps to have a player known for energy and effort back in the lineup.
Kentucky forward Mo Dioubate took the Rupp Arena floor on Saturday night for the first time since going down with a high ankle sprain against Michigan State all the way back on Nov. 18. It took nearly a month before he was good enough to suit back up. During that rehab time, he received treatment 2-3 times per day, sat his foot in ice buckets, and used any machine available in the workout room that would help get him back to full strength.
