We all know the story of game one. Trevor Keels and Paolo Banchero combine for 47 points to lead Duke to a 79-71 victory over Kentucky. Oscar Tshiebwe put up a record-setting double-double and Sahvir Wheeler had his moments, as well, but it wasn’t enough to pull off the victory in the Champions Classic.
Now, it’s about moving forward. Kentucky has returned home to face the Robert Morris Colonials to open the home schedule, with the game set to tip off at 7 p.m. ET at Rupp Arena.
After opening the season with a tough loss in New York City, what can fans expect in the home-opener?
