导出博客文章LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Other than the start, Kentucky coach John Calipari had few
complaints about the top-ranked Wildcats latest domination featuring more
examples of Malik Monks skills.Monk scored a career-high 26 points, DeAaron Fox
added 16 and Kentucky routed UT-Martin 111-76 on Friday night, the most points
scored in the Calipari Era.The taller Wildcats overcame a slow shooting start
and 16-15 deficit to the athletic Skyhawks before rolling to a season-high
victory margin. Kentucky (6-0) shot a season-best 55 percent from the field by
controlling the paint 54-28 and the boards 48-26, along with recording 24
assists.They got our best today, Calipari said. And the way we moved the ball --
I kind of like coaching against zone and I want my team to feel like if they
play zone, thats a good thing. Lets go do this.Monks 10-of-17 shooting led the
way with Fox making 7 of 12 from the field. Monk has scored at least 23 points
in three of his past four games and this effort featured 10 over a 1:51 stretch
in the second half highlighted by back-to-back dunks. He also jumped high to
swat a lob pass out of bounds.The Wildcats freshman guard wasnt available
afterward, but teammates lobbed plenty of praise at Monk.I would say hes fired
up, said senior guard Dominique Hawkins, who had a career-best nine assists
along with six points. Hes the most exciting athlete Ive played with on a team.
I dont know how he blocked that lob. He just jumped up there, cuffed it and
threw it.Monk wasnt the only Wildcat to stand out.Wenyen Gabriel and Bam
Adebayo, who had 12 rebounds, each had a career-high 15 points for Kentucky,
which won the game that was part of a matchup of unbeaten teams in the four-game
Bluegrass Showcase.Matthew Butler scored 15 points and Jacolby Mobley had 14 for
UT Martin (5-2), which shot just 33 percent in the second half and 41 percent
overall in having its five-game winning streak stopped.THE BIG PICTUREUT Martin:
Despite giving away several inches inside against Kentucky, the Skyhawks
quickness helped their zone work early on. But they soon began sending Kentucky
to the free throw line in the first half and were eventually worn down by
Kentuckys height and quickness. Their length can be very problematic. It was
problematic for us, first-year coach Anthony Stewart said. We thought possibly
wed have a chance with our maturity and our older guys against some younger
guys. It just didnt work out that way tonight.Kentucky: The Wildcats led by as
many as 48 points in the second half en route to their sixth win by at least 21
points, which hasnt been done since the 1947-48 Fabulous Five won their first
six games by at least 24. Calipari joked that this team might be the Fabulous
Nine but noted that the fast starts depend on the competition. The docket gets
much tougher with Arizona State and UCLA next week and rival Louisville ahead in
December, so this was the preparation Kentucky needed. Our run of games is going
to be coming now, and its how I believe we have to schedule, Calipari added.POLL
IMPLICATIONSKentuckys lofty perch appears safe through Mondays next poll but
will be tested with back-to-back games against Pac-12 members Arizona State and
UCLA.INJURY REPORTSenior Derek Willis played just 8 minutes and Calipari said he
sprained his right thumb. Sophomore guard Isaiah Briscoe meanwhile missed his
second straight game and was scheduled to undergo an MRI after the game on his
injured back.UP NEXTUT Martin: Returns home from the three-game road swing to
host Florida Atlantic on Tuesday.Kentucky: Faces Arizona State on Monday night
in the Atlantis Showcase in the Bahamas. The Wildcats are 4-0 against the Sun
Devils including last years 72-58 win in Lexington.---AP College Basketball:
