Sunday, the No. 2 Kentucky Wildcats opened the two-game 2019 exhibition slate with an 80-53 victory over the defending NAIA champion Georgetown College Tigers.
Immanuel Quickley led UK in scoring with 16 points. Tyrese Maxey and Ashton Hagans also had solid outings with 14 points apiece.
Unfortunately, Kentucky lost Nick Richards to a lower-leg injury, and it’s unclear how long he’ll be out with the regular season starting just over a week from now.
After the game, UK head coach John Calipari and select players met with the media to discuss the victory.
