DJ Wagner takes on pair of former teammates vs. Saint Joseph's

Hoping for a DJ Wagner breakthrough sooner rather than later? He’s got just the thing to stoke his competitive fire in Kentucky‘s matchup vs. Saint Joseph’s.

Remember the name Jerome Brewer Jr. in the Wildcats’ win over Texas A&M-Commerce? He went for 12 points on 4-6 shooting with four rebounds and two assists in the hard-fought 20-point loss inside Rupp Arena. That was a former teammate of both Wagner and Aaron Bradshaw at Camden High School.

“It was great, just to be out on the big stage and on the floor against him,” Wagner said of the matchup, finishing with 11 points, three assists and just one turnover in the win.
