With a made three-pointer versus Alabama this Saturday, the Kentucky Wildcats will have made a three in 1,000 consecutive games. This would be a true milestone for the storied program.
Matt Jones, Ryan Lemond, Drew Franklin and the rest of the gang at Kentucky Sports Radio have brought a very interesting fact to my attention. The Wildcats can reach a major milestone this Saturday in Tuscaloosa. Malik Monk and company can stretch Kentucky’s remarkable streak of games with a made three-point shot to 1,000 with a connection behind the arc against the Crimson Tide. This remarkable streak stretches across 29 seasons, four head coaches and hundreds of players.
The guys on the KSR Radio Show then started talking about the greatest three point baskets by the Cats during that stretch. With some help from their listeners they ended up with a list of some very famous moments that are well-familiar to any Big Blue fan that has followed the team over this period of time. This got some creative juices flowing. There is no denying these shots as some of the top three point baskets in Kentucky Basketball history. Let’s enjoy a trip down memory lane. Some of the stops on our journey will have a little age on them, others will be of a newer vintage.
