No. 16 Kentucky men’s basketball (7-2) defeated UPenn (6-5) 81-66 inside the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.
The game saw the return of five-star freshman D.J. Wagner, who missed the Cats’ previous game due to an ankle injury he sustained against Miami.
The Wildcats entered the game on the back of a shock defeat inside Rupp Arena against UNC Wilmington in a game that also saw the debut of Aaron Bradshaw. The Cats were without Wagner in the contest due to injury.
The game in the city of brotherly love marked the second away from home for the Cats after they faced off against then No.
