Kentucky's matchup with Penn could be Aaron Bradshaw's breakout game

Aaron Bradshaw will break out against the Penn Quakers.

Kentucky is getting ready to take on the Penn Quakers in Philadelphia on Saturday after a full week off. 

This game will be freshman seven-footer Aaron Bradshaw's second game in a Kentucky uniform after making his debut in the loss to UNC Wilmington. 

Bradshaw only played 13 minutes in this game, scoring three points and grabbing two boards. 

In his first game back, Coach Calipari clearly wanted to manage Bradshaw's minutes to make sure he was feeling good at game speed. 

With no setbacks in this game, it's time to unleash Bradshaw against the Penn Quakers in the Wells Fargo Center. 

Penn is a team full of guards who can all shoot, but they aren't a very big team. They start four guards, all 6'4 or shorter, and one forward who is 6'9. This is a small basketball team that Bradshaw should be able to use his size against. 

With the UNC game coming up next Saturday, it would be huge if Bradshaw could find his footing in college basketball against Penn. 

If he can score in double-digits, block a few shots, and grab some boards, this would definitely have the seven-footer feeling good when he faces off with Armando Bacot next Saturday. 

I feel like Bradshaw is going to go off against Penn on Saturday, showing Big Blue Nation what he is made of.
