Kentucky made only 29.8 percent of its shots, the lowest percentage in John Calipari’s three seasons as coach.
But because UK found a way to win, Calipari was happy.
“I love this,” he said. ‘You shoot 29 percent from the floor and you win. … That’s a good day.
“(It means) you rebounded and defended pretty good.”
It showed that UK does not have to shoot well to win, he said.
