The Kentucky Wildcats will hold their first major scrimmage of the 2015-16 college basketball season on Tuesday night in their annual Blue-White Scrimmage.
This will be the first time we get to see newcomers Skal Labissiere, Charles Matthews, Jamal Murray, Isaiah Briscoe, Mychal Mulder, and Isaac Humphries in a game-like scenario since coming to UK. Skal will be someone the whole world wants to see as many expect him to be one of, if not the top pick in the 2016 NBA Draft.
It's rare in college hoops that an intrasquad scrimmage can be viewed nationally, but Kentucky basketball is a different kind of animal. you'll be able to watch it online via the Watch ESPN App and on TV via the SEC Network.
Also, head coach John Calipari will pay for the 2016 spring semester in-state tuition for two lucky students who attend Tuesday's Blue-White Scrimmage, so there's some added incentive for students to come.
In case you need a refresher, here's the current roster and numbers for all 14 players.
