Derek Willis Answered the Call

Kentucky took a quick lead in overtime, but was not going down easy. After a crazy chain of events unfolded on A&M’s side of the floor with just over a minute to go, Danuel House tied it up with a deep three from the top of the key.

Now Kentucky’s turn, who did Cal look to for the big shot? Jamal Murray has been on a roll, Tyler Ulis had a career night, but Calipari looked elsewhere. He look at Derek Wills.

“There was no doubt in my mind we were going to go to Derek Willis on that last play,” he said after the game.
