WATCH: KSR's Rapid Reaction to Kentucky's 88-68 win over Florida A&M
As the old saying goes… A win is still a win!
That was the case once again on Wednesday night in Rupp Arena. While the Kentucky Wildcats still came away with a 20-point victory over the Florida A&M Rattlers, it certainly wasn’t a pretty display of basketball from start to finish. Florida A&M cut a 20-point Kentucky lead to as few as seven with a little over five minutes left in the second half before the ‘Cats pulled away for good.
Kentucky was powered by a jaw-dropping stat line from freshman Cason Wallace, who played point guard for nearly the entire second half. He finished with a career-high 27 points, nine assists, and four steals on 10-15 overall shooting, including a 5-6 clip from distance. Oscar Tshiebwe posted 14 points and eight rebounds while CJ Fredrick refound his groove with 12 points on four made triples.
