Kentucky beat Mount St. Mary’s relatively easily tonight, 80-55, but the Cats were without a handful of players due to injury. Jacob Toppin (shoulder) and Lance Ware (ankle) were out, along with CJ Fredrick, who will miss the remainder of the season with a hamstring injury. After the game, John Calipari provided a brief update on all three, starting with Toppin, who recently had an MRI on his shoulder.
“I hope not but there was no damage damage [for Toppin]. He’s got a bruised shoulder. We’ll see. Lance has the ankle, so whether he’ll play in two days, I don’t know.
