Kentucky basketball: 3 keys vs West Virginia, prediction, game info
By Drew Koch
1. Containing Jevon Carter
The 6’2″, 185 pound Carter is the leading scorer for the Mountaineers. The senior guard is averaging 16.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 6.5 assists. Carter is a threat from the outside as well. He is shooting 39% from three-point territory on about 6 shots from deep per game.
Carter is the player that the Kentucky basketball team must focus on. The Cats will likely continue to implement the 2-3 zone they’ve utilized throughout the season, however, when they inevitablity go man-to-man, look for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to draw the assignment.
