The Kentucky Wildcats men’s basketball team continued their dazzling start to the season, cruising to a 105-76 win over Georgia State. With this dominant performance, the Wildcats remain undefeated at 7-0, showcasing both offensive firepower and defensive tenacity.
Jaxson Robinson shined with 19 points, shooting an efficient 9-for-14 from the field, while Lamont Butler proved instrumental with 17 points, six assists, and three steals. Despite early turnovers, Kentucky responded with a decisive 7-0 run, finding their rhythm through aggressive drives and physical play, especially in the paint, where they racked up 62 points.
The Wildcats led by 15 at halftime, yet Georgia State mounted a brief surge early in the second half. Kentucky quickly adjusted, regaining control with clutch performances by Ansley Almonor and Otega Oweh, who electrified the crowd with key buckets and a thunderous dunk.
Though their three-point shooting was less stellar at 26.9%, Kentucky’s dominance in other areas, including a relentless transition game, left no doubt about the outcome. The win marked their fourth 100-point game this season, reinforcing their position as a top contender.
The Wildcats now shift their focus to the SEC/ACC Challenge, where they face Clemson on the road in a much-anticipated clash. With their perfect record intact, Kentucky aims to continue their march toward a memorable season.
