Kentucky Coach Mark Pope will be without his PG2 for a while.
Mark Pope and the Kentucky Wildcats just got a massive win over the Gonzaga Bulldogs in Seattle, picking up their second Quad 1 and top ten win of the season.
Kentucky was without starting point guard Lamont Butler in this game, which meant Kerr Kriisa needed to step up. Kriisa had a solid outing but got injured halfway through the second half. On Sunday, it was announced that Kriisa would be out for 3-6 weeks with a Jones Fracture in his foot. Kriisa will have surgery to repair the fracture, but he will be out for a while.
Jaxson Robinson ran the point in the final ten minutes of the game, leading the Wildcats to a win over Gonzaga. He will likely see some minutes at point guard over the next few weeks until Kriisa is back on the floor.
