Kentucky is already thin in the middle and this certainly doesn’t help. Nick Richards had to leave today’s exhibition vs. Georgetown College with a lower leg injury. According to UK, he will not return tonight.
Richards rolled his ankle while contesting Jake Ohmer’s three at the start of the second half:

Richards finished with six points (3-3 FG) and five rebounds in 15 minutes. Here’s hoping his injury isn’t too serious because Kentucky needs him.
