Auburn beat Kentucky last night, in case you didn’t hear. Despite beginning the game 1-16 from the floor, and falling behind by multiple possessions in the closing minutes, the Tigers held strong and upended the Wildcats at Auburn Arena. Scope the highlights.
First of all, Bryce Brown came back from his shoulder injury and poured in a brace-assisted 18 points to match Jared Harper’s 18 points. But it was Anfernee McLemore’s double-double (13 points, 11 rebounds) that paced Auburn and triggered the spark for the Tigers late in the game.
McLemore pulled Auburn within one on an alley-oop, then after a Bryce Brown three for the lead, McLemore went to work again and brought the house down.
