This time last week, Kentucky was flying high after beating the No. 1 team in the country inside Madison Square Garden. Fast forward to today, and the Cats are still reeling from their shocking loss to Evansville, a 25-point underdog, inside Rupp Arena. What a difference a week makes, right?
For graduate transfer Nate Sestina, those seven days didn’t have a huge impact on his box-score stats. Against the Spartans, he recorded seven points and six rebounds in 31 minutes. Tuesday night against Evansville, Sestina finished with nine points on 2-4 shooting, while adding five rebounds, two turnovers and a block in 29 minutes of action.
