Slow starts have plagued the UK Hoops team early in the young season. That was not the case tonight against the Morehead State Eagles.
Kentucky’s offense looked more fluid than it has all season in the opening minutes and a lot of that has to do with the return of junior guard. Makayla Epps, who recorded the second triple-double in program history during the game. The Marion County native’s pinpoint passing on the fast break led to several easy Wildcat baskets. The Cats’ offensive explosion continued the rest of the night and five players finished in double figures.
