Sometimes things just happen for a reason. After Kentucky’s win at Kansas on Saturday, 16-year-old Cats fan Makenna Lunsford wanted to meet the team, specifically her favorite player Davion Mintz, so she took a chance. Sporting her Immanuel Quickly jersey, Lunsford made the long trek down from the rafters at Allen Fieldhouse after the final horn sounded.

“We were sitting really high up so I went to the bottom of the court and I flexed like Oscar [Tshiebwe] does and I was like, ‘Okay, I’m probably not going to be able to see any of the players,” she told KSR this morning.
