By scoring 14 points against Georgia last Saturday, Darius Miller posted his fifth straight game with 10 or more points. He’d only had five such games this season prior to the current streak.
This prompted a reporter to ask Kentucky Coach John Calipari if Miller was playing with the aggressiveness long sought.
“He’s getting closer,” said Calipari, who noted that there still are spells in games when Miller is not as assertive.
“But I’m pleased he’s moving in the right direction.”
