Prediction
Kentucky won’t hit a ton of threes, but it will get to the basket with Murray and Isaiah Briscoe leading the way. Labissiere will continue to underwhelm, and Chinanu Onuaku will flirt with a double-double. Louisville will force the Wildcats into some contested jumpers and force some turnovers to piece together some scoring runs, but Kentucky will win the rebounding battle and hit timely shots to win the game — a close, close game.
