Rarely do you see a basketball game in Rupp Arena in September, but on Monday, UK head coach John Calipari put nine past and present NBA players and more than $1 million in donations together and asked fans to come watch.
A crowd of 19,255, including several recruits, saw the Blue team and guard John Wall defeat the White team, 111-95.
The Blue team was led by a triple-double from Wall, who began the game with a steal and a breakaway dunk. Wall finished with 40 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
Other members included guards Ramon Harris and DeAndre Liggins, and forwards Josh Harrellson, Perry Stevenson, Jared Prickett and Patrick Patterson.
Walter Cornett, of Glendale, Kentucky, is the owner and operator of Walter’s Wildcat World. He founded WildcatWorld.com in 1998 making it one of the oldest Kentucky basketball fan sites in operation today.
