When you are missing both members of your starting backcourt it isn’t supposed to be easy. It was decidedly not easy for the first 16 minutes or so for the Kentucky Wildcats on Saturday afternoon. The Alabama Crimson Tide hit nine three-pointers in the first half and led by as many as 13 points around the five minute mark. However, Kentucky just kept scoring to keep themselves in it. They were 12-15 from the free throw line and connected on three three-pointers of their own. Eventually, the ‘Cats strung together some stops and finished the half on a 19-5 run to take a one point advantage.
