Kentucky invited media members to watch Tuesday’s practice at the Joe Craft Center. Here are observations, random thoughts and guesswork from the two-and-one-half-hour workout

▪ Malik Monk and Dominique Hawkins shot smoothly and confidently.

The shot of the day might have been taken by De’Aaron Fox: a high-arcing left-handed jumper from the elbow over Derek Willis.

It settled into the basket softly.

▪ Monk’s perimeter shooting presented an unusual challenge in a drill.

“Malik is harder to guard in this. Why?” Calipari asked the players before answering his own question. “Because he can jump.”

Calipari held a hand about four feet off the floor.

▪ Calipari stopped practice to praise Bam Adebayo’s effort to get offensive rebounds.

“Great job, Bam!”

▪ Mychal Mulder looked leaner, fitter than last season. He also appeared lighter on his feet and more athletic.
