The Final Four is set as the Alabama Crimson Tide will take on UConn on one side while Purdue will take on America's team, NC State, on the other side.

While the Wildcats won't be playing, their leading scorer will partake in the three-point shooting contest.

Antonio Reeves will face off with some of the best three points shooters in all of college basketball including Jack Gohkle.

Gohkle went 10-20 from deep against the Wildcats to open up the NCAA Tournament, where the Golden Grizzlies took down the Wildcats 80-76, ending the season for John Calipari's squad.

While this loss was hard for Big Blue Nation to swallow, Reeves could avenge this loss with a win in the three-point shooting contest in Phoneix.

Gohlke has become a college basketball legend after his performance against Kentucky in the NCAA Tournament. Thanks to his big game, he secured several NIL deals, including Buffalo Wild Wings, Turbo Tax, and Barstool Sports.

On the season, Reeves averaged 20.2 points per game, shooting 44.7% from beyond the three-point line. Hopefully, an NBA team will give Reeves a shot in the upcoming draft, as he has proven he is a three-level scorer, not just a shooter.

Reeves also played better defense this season and, at his 6'6 frame, he truly could be an effective role player in the NBA.

Because of the lack of NCAA Tournament success, Reeves won't be remembered as a Kentucky legend, but his two seasons in Lexington were spectacular.

You can watch Reeves in the three-point shooting contest on April 4th at 9:00 pm on ESPN.
