Kentucky basketball shows valiant effort in loss to No. 1 Kansas

Kentucky basketball fought hard against Kansas, but it wasn't enough in the end. On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe recaps Kentucky vs Kansas in the Champions Classic. The Kentucky Wildcats held their own and had great performances from Rob Dillingham, Reed Sheppard and Adou Thiero. However, poor shooting from Antonio Reeves, DJ Wagner and Justin Edwards held Kentucky from solidifying their lead in the second half. Kansas leaned on Hunter Dickinson and KJ Adams down low and the Wildcats' short rotation eventually broke. Fans should feel confident in UK after such an impressive performance despite shooting poorly. There are a ton of positives to take away from this one. Just get healthy, and you'll be a really good team.
