Will Wade: Nick Richards “totally controlled the game defensively”
@KentuckyMBBA lot of talk about last night’s 79-76 win over LSU has centered around Immanuel Quickley and Nate Sestina — and rightfully so — but it couldn’t have happened without Nick Richards. Once again, the junior big man was a force down low, finishing with 13 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 blocks, just one shy of his career high.
Afterwards, Will Wade said the Tigers had no answer for Richards inside.
“Killed us. Killed us to me. We talked all week about playing off two and showing Richards the ball and we just go in there and throw the ball off the backboard.”
