The Tennessee Volunteers swept the season series with the Kentucky basketball team after defeating UK 61-59. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Quade Green combined for 30 points, but it wasn’t enough as the Cats have now lost back-to-back games in conference and fall to 6-5 in the SEC.
First Half
The Kentucky basketball team started 0-of-7 from the field, then Quade Green knocked down a three-pointer to knot the score a 4. At the under-12 minute TV timeout, the Cats hit a stretch of 4-plus minutes without a field goal.
Another three-pointer by Green brought Big Blue Nation to their feet and put the Cats in front 11-9.
