Kentucky senior forward Alex Poythress missed Saturday’s game with Florida due to pain in his knee.

After the game Kentucky coach John Calipari said he was not sure about his status and that he would have an X-ray Sunday.

“He’s day to day. I doubt he practices today,” Calipari said Monday on the SEC coaches’ teleconference. “He had the swelling on the knee.

“They took an X-ray, I don’t think the X-ray showed anything. But there’s some reason it is, so it’ll be day to day.”

We will need him at full strength for us to be at our very best for the rest of the season.

I thought we played better without him against Florida on Saturday night. I do agree, we are going to need him to be successful the rest of the way.
