As injuries pile up for Kentucky men’s basketball, the heavy load of minutes for those on the court continues to grow.
During the Wildcats’ 71-68 win over Mississippi State on Wednesday, all five starters played at least 32 minutes. Cason Wallace and Antonio Reeves, who are handling the bulk of the backcourt duties while Sahvir Wheeler and CJ Fredrick recover from injury, both logged 38 minutes in the victory and could have gone the full 40 if needed. Jacob Toppin saw the floor for 37 minutes of his own while both Chris Livingston and Oscar Tshiebwe clocked 32 minutes each.
