This morning, a picture of a banner hanging outside a house in Lexington made its way around social media depicting Auburn star Chuma Okeke, who tore his ACL vs. North Carolina, riding a scooter in a knee brace.

Auburn forward Danjel Purifoy commented on the post about an hour ahead of tipoff.

“Disrespectful but I got some for y’all Kentucky fans,” Purifoy wrote.

After Auburn’s win, Bryce Brown said he used the banner as fuel against the Cats.
