Jemarl Baker checked into just his second game in a Kentucky Wildcats uniform late against Utah on Saturday. He did not hesitate to leave his mark, hitting back to back three-pointers to close the game out with six quick points.
In his post game interview, Coach John Calipari admitted that he should have put Baker in early, but he apparently “forgot” about him on the bench. While I don’t love that look from Coach Cal, I can almost guarantee that he will not forget about the sharp shooter again.
Baker has only logged three minutes as a Kentucky Wildcat, and he is currently averaging two points per minute.
