The Kentucky Wildcats opened Game 1 in the Bahamas with a dominant win over the Dominican Republic Select Team.
The Wildcats jumped out to an early lead and led for all but 24 seconds of the game, taking an 18-point lead into halftime where they stepped on the gas pedal in the second half to come away with a 108-56 win.
All-around, it was a great performance from Kentucky on both ends, as the Cats shot 57 percent from the floor and held the Dominican Republic to just 33 percent.
Kentucky’s length really bothered the DR Team, which shot just 4-19 from three while Kentucky shot the ball well from the perimeter, finishing 11-26.
