When Kentucky takes on the French professional basketball team, Champagne Chalons-Reims, in the Bahamas, UK fans will see a familiar face on the opposing side, one that is partially responsible for our worst memory of the John Calipari era.

Da’Sean Butler, West Virginia’s leading scorer in the 2010 Elite 8 game, signed with the club earlier this summer and the former Mountaineer will start in the two games against UK.

Last time we saw Butler, he was John Wall dancing on the stage with teammate John Flowers in Syracuse:

None of the current Wildcats were around for that game, but I trust fans in the Bahamas know how to greet Butler when he is introduced to the crowd on Monday.
