Just refuse to lose…
During first-round action of the 2023 NCAA Tournament on Friday night, the Kentucky Wildcats broke its postseason losing streak with a 61-53 victory over the Providence Friars. Kentucky was powered by eight points and 25 rebounds — the most by a UK player in an NCAA Tournament game since 2000 — from Oscar Tshiebwe while Antonio Reeves led the way in scoring with a game-high 22 points on five made three-pointers. Jacob Toppin, who was especially spectacular in the first half, finished with 18 points and six rebounds.
