Nate Sestina gave his teammates and fans a scare Tuesday night when he ran off the court holding his right shoulder, but it didn’t take long for him to check back into the game. During the post-game press conferences, head coach John Calipari told reporters he didn’t know whether or not Sestina had his shoulder popped back into place in the locker room. All he knew was Sestina was good to keep playing.
“I just said ‘can you play? He said yes,” Calipari said. “All right – go in.”
Sestina echoed that same sentiment once it was his turn to meet with reporters.
