CHICAGO — No. 16 Kentucky played with the poise of a veteran team for most of its Champions Classic matchup against No. 1 Kansas on Tuesday night at the United Center. The closing minutes? Well, that was when their youth showed up.
Often the toughest aspect of winning for a young team is to understand how to close out a game, and UK learned how not to do it in its 89-84 loss to Kansas.
