Marcus Lee played with a protective mask on, which Calipari attributed to nose bleeds.
“His nose has been bleeding and we don’t know if he’s getting hit and that’s why his nose is bleeding, so we just put the thing on so we don’t have to deal with him walking off the court, going in the back saying his nose is not stopping and, so.”
The mask didn’t stop Lee from having another big night. The junior turned in 13 points off 6-9 shooting and 8 rebounds.
