It might seem like Nerlens Noel has limitless energy, might appear as though the Kentucky freshman never tires of chasing loose balls and diving on the floor.
Given the ferocity with which Noel plays every game – including No. 3 Kentucky’s 101-49 win against Lafayette Friday night at Rupp Arena – it’s an easy assumption to make.
In truth, though, even Noel’s energy has its limits.
Like when there aren’t games, for example.
“It’s not as high (in practice),” Noel said Friday. “I’m trying to do it so I don’t kill myself.”
