Jamal Murray’s 19 points in his NCAA tourney debut pushed him over the 700-point mark on the year, a plateau very few players have reached at Kentucky. Murray became only the seventh Wildcat in the program’s history to score 700 points in a single season, led by Dan Issel’s untouchable record of 948 points in 1969-70.
