Kentucky fans have been waiting for Kellan Grady to finally pop off. The graduate transfer from Davidson famously brought 2,000 career college points to Lexington but has needed time to settle into his new role. He’s not expected to score 17 points per game as he did the last four seasons.
Now, his role is to shoot the ball; and if he doesn’t, he’ll sit on the bench.
“He and I went in the gym and I worked with him and it’s me. Not really,” UK head coach John Calipari jokingly said of Grady’s improved shooting after beating Western Kentucky 95-60 on Wednesday night.
