Will Z play tonight?

I'm sure he has a great personality, but I doubt you'll see what he's like in a basketball game.
I doubt it. We refuse to blow out teams so I don't see it.
Cal only plays him if he's good enough to come in and do well. If cal views him as the 10th man I doubt he plays.

I agree. Better to bring him in in the first half. If for some reason he's not ready/not good, we have more than enough time to bounce back. But that being said, I think he might show us a couple flashes.
Calipari should give him a token appearance in this game for 2-3 minutes, at least ... after all the kid has been through ! Just MHO, of course !
Go 'Cats ! ! !

Hopefully he'll get some serious minutes on the floor together with Ugo and Bradshaw. Size! Rim protection!
I'd seriously enjoy that for 1 minute. Those 3 and shep and Reeves. Lol madness.
A story on CBS Sports says he’s debuting tonight!
Besides, what’s the point of being eligible if Cal isn’t going to play him? He’s never going to get minutes if the coach doesn’t give him minutes!
He will come in with Shep and Dilly after the first TV timeout. Maybe even alongside Ugo🤯

I think he'll get a couple minutes. Just to dip his toes in the water a bit. I'd expect it to be earlier than later. Putting him in if the game is in hand doesn't really help him much.
Can CAL contain himself tonight, maybe see twin towers even triple towers for a small stretch.
Try out the LU he's been waiting for
C-Onyenso
PF-Bradshaw
SF-Ivisic
SG-Mitchell
PG-Edwards
🤣
To answer the question, yes Big Z plays this evening and I can’t wait!
Put him out there with Shep, Dilly, and Reeves to keep the pressure off of him offensively.
I'd bring in Z at the 8 minute mark of the first half... the crowd will go nuts... halftime show will be all uk and z
Cal better play him a few minutes or people will break out the torches and pitch forks!! lol
Starting lineup just announced:
Big Z
Bradshaw
UGO
Mitchell
Edwards

IMO, I think you bring him in for a 3-minute run when Shepherd subs in and play him with UK's most efficient passers (Shepherd, Dilly, Mitchell), then listen to the energy in Rupp and see how it goes.
It's really a no brainer to me, especially if Rupp Arena needs a spark of energy early in the game if it's the usual ho-hum type of start......

Btw this USUALLY means he isn't playing. A coach putting a guy through a workout on the floor way before everyone else typically means they aren't playing.
But let's see.

Cal should start him so he can hear the crowd when he’s announced!
I didn't even think it was a question. Didn't Cal say just the other day that he'd play him immediately? Of course, I can almost never understand anything he says, either.
He might make a cameo, and if he does the roof will come off Rupp. Now if they can get Adou fixed up.
I think this would be cool as well. Let’s him start and play like a couple of minutes. He’s earned it after all the bs UK and the NCAA have put him through.
Honestly start him tonight for the energy it would bring at rupp. Worse case give him a couple minutes then bring AB in. He plays no matter what tonight though at least a bit.
