3. Tai Wynyard sighting

Nick Richards and PJ Washington both picked up early fouls and went to the bench. Sacha Killeya-Jones played well in the first half, but fatigue sent him to the bench. Tai Wynyard, the only other true center or power forward on the roster, then entered the game. Wynyard is a strong, physical presence in the paint for the Cats. But in conference play, is Wynyard a better option than going with a small lineup? This is not a critique on Wynyard at all. I just question whether or not the Kentucky basketball team will be more successful with a smaller lineup versus a lineup with Wynyard.
