After the loss to UNC Wilmington at home, Kentucky desperately needed to get back in the win column today vs. Penn. It was not pretty, but the Cats beat the Quakers 81-66 in the Malone’s Classic sponsored by Campbell’s at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. With a trio of former Cats — Tyrese Maxey, Immanuel Quickley, and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist — sitting courtside and plenty of Malone’s gift card advertisements on the floor, Kentucky ultimately took care of business to improve to 7-2 on the season.

This was a homecoming for several Kentucky Wildcats, but one outshined the rest. In just his second game back from injury, Aaron Bradshaw was spectacular. The 7-2 freshman notched his first career double-double with a team-high tying 17 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3PT), 11 rebounds, 3 blocks, and a steal in 29 minutes. He was also tops in plus/minus efficiency at +17.

Things are coming together, folks. The Kentucky basketball roster is up to nine and the staff is up to four, just a few key pieces here and there to close things out for Mark Pope’s first official ride in Lexington.
Two of the newest pieces? Dayton sharpshooter Koby Brea and West Virginia playmaker Kerr Kriisa, top backcourt targets for Pope out of the portal that are now signed, sealed and delivered. What’s next? Well, it starts with star talent — and the Wildcats are fortunately positioned well for at least one of those.
How did we get to this point and what’s next for the Wildcats? Sources Say breaks it down in episode 334. You can watch the show in its entirety below:

How good will Mark Pope's first Kentucky be? Who else do the Cats need? | Sources Say

Kentucky entered this past weekend with just three signees in Collin Chandler, Travis Perry and Amari Williams. In the five days since, Mark Pope and his staff have added four new pieces, starting with Lamont Butler of San Diego State, followed by Otega Oweh of Oklahoma, Andrew Carr of Wake Forest, and now, Brandon Garrison of Oklahoma State.
What’s next? We may not have to wait very long, as Kentucky is in the driver’s seat to land Dayton sharpshooter Koby Brea — the top 3-point specialist in the transfer portal set to decide between UK, UConn, Kansas, UNC and Duke.
