John Calipari likes what he sees out of Davion Mintz at the starting point guard position.
Following his 20-point, seven-assist, two-turnover effort in Kentucky’s blowout victory over South Carolina in the regular season finale on Saturday, Calipari says he is comfortable keeping Mintz at point guard as the Wildcats head down to Nashville for the SEC Tournament.
In fact, the UK head coach said Mintz’s play at the position reminded him of Andrew Harrison’s impact as a distributor during the 2013-14 season, one that finished with a wildly memorable and historic postseason run the current group is also trying to make.
