One week after holding “Big Blue Madness,” the Kentucky Wildcats are back on the Rupp Arena court Friday night. The play should be a bit more serious this time around however, with the Blue-White Scrimmage generally being a more competitive event. The Blue-White Scrimmage is scheduled to begin Friday night at 7:00 p.m. Eastern, with it being televised by the SEC Network.
Kentucky once again has a roster that, while young, is loaded with talent. Wednesday morning the Southeastern Conference released its preseason poll and all-conference teams, with John Calipari’s Wildcats being picked to win the title. Four Wildcats received individual honors as well, with guard De’Aaron Fox and forward Bam Adebayo being first team All-SEC selections and guards Isaiah Briscoe and Malik Monk landing on the second team.
With the nation’s top incoming freshman class and returnees such as Briscoe and forward Derek Willis, Kentucky is one of the early favorites to reach the Final Four in Glendale, Arizona.
