Collin Chandler might have been named the MVP of the BBN United Tipoff Classic Presented by Kentucky Tourism, but Mo Dioubate was the single-game MVP on Friday night.

Dioubate posted his seventh career double-double and first as a Wildcat in Kentucky’s 99-53 win over Eastern Illinois in Rupp Arena. The Alabama transfer went for 20 points and 11 rebounds on 8-9 shooting, his lone miss a three-pointer from the corner. Dioubate bullied his way right through a smaller Panthers team, finishing nothing but layups and dunks.
