GREENVILLE, S.C.- While she has shown flashes of brilliance this season, Eniya Russell proved how important of a piece she is to Kentucky if it wants to make a run in the SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament on Wednesday.
The Wildcats found themselves in a predicament before the opening tip-off as it was announced that Maddie Scherr was unavailable due to concussion protocol just 51 minutes before the start of the game.
With that in mind, once the ball tipped off and the game began, it was an inauspicious start for the Wildcats after Georgia jumped out to an 8-2 lead.
