Game Preview

Reed Sheppard’s scoring outputs were measly during a three-game stretch until No. 16 Kentucky traveled to Mississippi State.

Sheppard broke out of his slump with a career-best 32 points and made the tiebreaking basket with 0.5 seconds left on Tuesday night. Now he will ride a wave of confidence into Saturday’s Southeastern Conference game against Arkansas in Lexington, Ky.

Sheppard, a freshman guard, averaged just 6.3 points during the trio of games before the breakout performance in the 91-89 win over Mississippi State. He made 11 of 14 field-goal attempts, including four 3-pointers, and was stellar all-around with seven assists, five rebounds, two steals and two blocked shots.
