The Wildcats will be looking for their fifth straight win after dropping an early game to Evansville. In the last three outings, Kentucky has made strides in many areas. Their outside shooting has improved, EJ Montgomery and Nick Richards seem to be developing nicely, and aside from Nate Sestina’s broken wrist the team has healed up from early season injuries.
Sestina being out for the next few weeks should give more opportunities to Keion Brooks and Kahlil Whitney. Both of those guys have loads of potential, but need more experience playing against college-level competition.
Also out due to injury is Dontaie Allen, who started fully participating in practice this week, but he developed knee soreness and hasn’t practiced since then. He’s probably several more weeks away from making his debut.
Fairleigh Dickinson will be Kentucky’s first opponent in several games that has not faced any other of Kentucky’s opponents. It will also be the first team Kentucky has faced all season with a losing record.
The Knights’ only victories of the season have come in games against FDU-Florham and Quinnipiac, with the latter coming in a narrow, one point margin. The most notable losses on their schedule have been to Army, DePaul, and Notre Dame.
