Kentucky clamps Utah: 4 takeaways and postgame banter

Saturday night called for another basketball game featuring the Kentucky Wildcats against the Utah Utes.

While it was their 10th of the 2018-2019 season, it was their first without sophomore Quade Green. Green announced his transfer from the program earlier in the week. Despite Green’s absence, the Wildcats snatched a sizable lead early and held on for a 88-61 win over the Utes.

Last Saturday’s half-court, overtime-sending three-point shot from Keldon Johnson lit a fire that never went out. In the win over Utah, Johnson carried his team in the first half by scoring 15 points on five made threes.
