No. 11 Kentucky basketball bounced back from its season-opening loss to Duke with a 100-60 win over Robert Morris in Friday's home opener, and the Wildcats will look to expand their win streak against Mount St. Mary on Tuesday night.
But the Wildcats must do so without former Covington Catholic star C.J. Fredrick. Fredrick, who recently returned to practice after missing most of preseason as he rehabbed from offseason leg surgery, is now expected to miss the entire 2021-22 season with a hamstring injury, UK announced Saturday. Fredrick is scheduled for surgery this week to repair a left hamstring injury he suffered shortly after returning to practice last week, beat writer Jon Hale wrote.
