The Kentucky Wildcats are 2-0 and are facing a huge test against the No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks on Tuesday night in the Champions Classic in Chicago. A key player for the Cats in that game will be none other than DJ Wagner.

The five-star freshman is the type of guard that John Calipari has thrived with during his time in Lexington. To this point, Wagner is continuing that trend.

Through the first two games, the 6-foot-4, 192-pounder is averaging 12 points per game on 42% shooting while adding 3.5 assists and one rebound per contest.
