Halftime Thoughts: Kentucky leads Vanderbilt 45-40 at the half but the Commodores have had lots of open looks
Kentucky leads the Vanderbilt Commodores 45-40 at the half after making four straight threes to finish the half. It was great to see the shots falling from deep late, but the Commodores have had a ton of wide-open looks.
If Kentucky gives the Tennessee Volunteers these looks on Saturday, it will be incredibly difficult for the Wildcats to take this game on the road.
Kentucky made a few lazy passes that led to turnovers in the first half. It seems like the Wildcats sleepwalked into this game, but they woke up in the last few minutes. John Calipari's squad needs to play a solid second half and win this game by a wide margin while preventing Vandy from getting so many good looks.
Vanderbilt is shooting 53.1% from the field in the first half. If Kentucky wants to win this game big, they need to start playing some better defense in their final 20 minutes in Rupp Arena this season.
Rob Dillingham leads Kentucky with 12 points on 4-9 shooting at the break.
