Kentucky men's basketball hosts Florida in its latest Southeastern Conference game Saturday night in Lexington.
The Wildcats (15-7, 6-3 SEC) overcame an injury to starting guard Cason Wallace and a separate injury to Sahvir Wheeler (who returned in the second half) to beat Ole Miss 75-66 Tuesday in Oxford, Mississippi. It pushed UK's win streak in conference games to five.
To make it six, the Wildcats will need to top a Gators squad that enters with momentum after upending No. 2 Tennessee at home Wednesday.
The Gators (13-9, 6-3) are led by Todd Golden, who is in his first season as coach after a stellar tenure at San Francisco.
