The Kentucky Wildcats traveled down to Oxford, Mississippi on Tuesday to try and bounce back for a win after Saturday’s home loss against Florida. And despite leading early in the second half, they fell short and lost to the Ole Miss Rebels 70-62.
The Wildcats were led in scoring by Keion Brooks with 14 points. He also led the team with six rebounds while Davion Mintz contributed 10 points and eight assists. While it seemed a few weeks ago that the Wildcats had turned a corner, this loss made it clear that Kentucky winning the SEC Tournament will very much be an uphill battle.
