Calipari: Duke game going to be “harder than I thought”

If Kentucky’s performance vs. Indiana University of Pennsylvania didn’t instill a lot of confidence in you for Tuesday’s game vs. Duke, you’re not alone. John Calipari said the season opener vs. the Blue Devils looks more daunting after his squad’s lackadaisical effort in their final tune up tonight.

“We’ve got a couple of days to prepare for this next one which is going to be a hard game. Now it appears it’s going to be even harder than I thought.”

Reid Travis and PJ Washington played well and Tyler Herro found his shot, but Immanuel Quickley, Ashton Hagans, and Quade Green had only eight points combined, a sign that Kentucky’s backcourt better wake up.
