Purdue entered Friday night’s exhibition vs. Kentucky as the No. 1 team in the country. However, it was all Kentucky once the game tipped off, with Kentucky leading for more than 37 minutes during the 78-65 victory.
After the game, Purdue point guard Braden Smith and forward Trey Kaufman-Renn shared their thoughts on Kentucky. They discussed what makes the Cats such a tough matchup.
It’s just one exhibition game, but without point guard Jaland Lowe and big Jayden Quaintance, Kentucky showed reasons to be excited.
