The moment you’ve all been waiting for is here, folks. Your past favorites are practicing against your current and future favorites at the Joe Craft Center, and we now have the highlights to show for it.

La Familia is in town for The Basketball Tournament, the likes of Aaron and Andrew Harrison, Eric Bledsoe, Willie Cauley-Stein, James Young, Kellan Grady and Nate Sestina returning to Lexington to begin their push for the $1 million prize. Before suiting up in the TBT, they’re suiting up against the current Wildcats in their old practice gym — allowed by the NCAA as part of the school’s normal summer schedule of four hours per week for eight weeks.

Kentucky shared a video of Sestina mic’d up on Tuesday accompanied by all of the practice footage you could ever dream of as a fan. Andrew Harrison finishing over Jaxson Robinson on an and-one floater, only for Robinson to respond with a steal and score on the other end? Perfect. How about Bledsoe hitting Kerr Kriisa with an up-and-under, followed by Robinson letting Cauley-Stein blow by in the corner before hitting a dagger three? Check. Maybe a putback for Andrew Carr at the rim? Sure.

It’s some good old-fashioned iron sharpening iron at the Joe Craft Center certain to brighten up your Wednesday. And if that doesn’t work, how about Sestina asking the coaches their shoe sizes or somehow sliding “My In-N-Out burger, no fries” into casual conversation? There’s plenty of that, too.

Take a look:

We’ve got all the photos you need from practice, as well, thanks to the fine photo team over at UK Athletics.

Glorious. More, please and thank you.
