Kentucky assistant coach Tony Barbee said Monday afternoon that injured junior forward Derek Willis is being “real diligent” with his rehabilitation from Saturday’s ankle injury
“I know he’s going to want to get out there with his teammates tomorrow,” said Barbee.
He also said that senior forward Alex Poythress, out with a knee injury, was scheduled to “resume activities” Monday but he wasn’t sure if he would play against Alabama or not tonight.
“You always want a full complement. We don’t want to go without anybody, but I know we’ve got some other guys that have stepped up in some other guys’ absences, I know with Coach’s philosophy of next man up,” Barbee said.
“You look at what Isaac (Humphries) did last game: really stepped up and was big for us. We’d like to have everybody, but I think everybody’s confident that if we do miss a couple pieces then our other guys will be ready to step in and do their jobs.”

They are saying on the radio that Poy is on the court but not running hard. Hope that changes and he is in good enough condition to at least get some minutes.

Poythress going 5-6 from the floor and 4-6 from the line in limited minutes is a heck of good line.
