The defense will be a vastly underrated part of the Kentucky basketball team.
In Kentucky's first exhibition game against Kentucky Wesleyan, the Wildcats didn't have any issue scoring at any point of the game. In the Wildcat's second and final exhibition game, in the first ten minutes, there were some issues when it came to turning over the ball and scoring.
That first ten minutes of this game, in a weird way, should excite Kentucky fans, and this is because while the three-point shots weren't falling, the defense was able to keep them ahead. Then, of course, the threes started to go down, and the Wildcats blew out Minnesota State.
