Saturday Headlines: Shorthanded Cats Edition
Joyful Saturday, BBN.
The Kentucky Wildcats will be shorter-handed today as the Alabama Crimson Tide will come to town.
John Calipari talked about in his push convention yesterday that he could be down 2 to 3 players today but wasn’t absolutely sure how numerous right until the workforce practiced. There even now has been no official word on which participant(s) will be actively playing currently so it looks like there we won’t know right up until game time.
TyTy Washington would seem like a lock to not enjoy. The theories out there are that the other two gamers are Jacob Toppin, who has been battling an ankle and back again injuries, and possibly Sahvir Wheeler who endured an elbow personal injury at Tennessee.
I would nonetheless hope the Cats to gain if TyTy was the only player missing. But if Kentucky is missing their starting off issue guard and shooting guard then this might be also tall of a task for them to take care of.
This is supposed to be the time of the calendar year that Calipari wishes to see his staff heading comprehensive throttle and enjoying their most effective basketball. Sadly the damn injuries bug has been far more like an injury plague with this group. It’s difficult to tighten up for the tournament when a number of gamers continue on to fight nagging injuries.
