During the first half of today's match up between Kentucky and Mississippi St, Dee Bost scored 16 huge points. He had a really heroic performance that propelled his team to a 13 point halftime lead. Then, enter Michael Kidd-Gilchrist.
The biggest adjustment that Coach Cal made during the half was the decision to move MKG over and guard the then on fire point guard of Mississippi St. Cal told Kidd-Gilchrist that he would have Bost's number. Bost would only score 5 points during the second half.
With Bost being hounded by MKG, State's offense sputtered during the latter part of the game. Kentucky held them to only 23 points in the second session. Then, it was MKG who would not be denied and gave Kentucky their first lead late in the game with a strong put back and foul. UK controlled the game from that point, winning 73-64.
