Kentucky will take on a Vanderbilt team that is missing its leading scorer and rebounder down in Nashville.
Liam Robbins, a transfer from Minnesota, sprained his ankle in practice last week and has missed two straight games for the Commodores. Officially ruled out 4-6 weeks due to the injury, the 7-foot senior out of Iowa will be forced to sit out vs. Kentucky and beyond.
Last suiting up vs. Arkansas on Jan. 14 — he finished with 14 points and three blocks in a 97-84 win — the fifth-year big man is averaging 13.
