John Calipari suggests he has found his backup center

The Kentucky Wildcats picked up a big win over the Michigan Wolverines on Sunday after struggling in their other two big matchups against Michigan State and Gonzaga.

At the beginning of the season, true freshman Ugonna Onyenso was making a big impact for the Cats when Oscar Tshiebwe was out due to injury. Onyenso recorded six points, four rebounds and four blocks against Howard in the season opener.

He followed that up with nine points, 10 rebounds and three blocks against Duquesne in the second game of the season.

However, the hype around the big man slowed down after he logged just two total minutes in the matchups against Michigan State and Gonzaga.
