It is easy to pick apart Tuesday night’s ugly loss to the South Carolina Gamecocks. It was the Kentucky Wildcats’ worst showing to date, and there was a lot not to like.
But with all of the questions that it may have raised about this team’s ability and character, it made one thing abundantly clear: The most important player is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
He very well may not be the most talented. Kevin Knox, at times, looks like a budding superstar that can score at will and can play either as a stretch-4 or big guard in the NBA.
