Miami at Kentucky: Where to Watch, Injury News, Betting Odds, Streaming, and More
The #8 Miami Hurricanes travel to Rupp Arena to play the #12 Kentucky Wildcats. This is a chance for Jim Larrañaga and his Canes basketball team to showcase their program after the 2023 Final Four run.
Both teams are highly talented and it’s expected to be an up-and-down-the-court game, but there are injury concerns for the Wildcats (see below).

Time: 7:30 p.m.

Injury News: Kentucky big man Aaron Bradshaw is still battling a foot injury. That’s unfortunate for UK as it would possess a definitive size advantage if Bradshaw were to be 100% healthy. Worse, fellow 7-foot post player Ugonna Onyenso is also healing from an ankle sprain.
Betting Odds: The SI Sports Book has Kentucky -5.5 over Miami. The over/under is 163.5 at -118. The money line is Kentucky -275 and Miami +200.
Key Matchup: Miami point guard Bensley Joseph is one of the nation's best defensive players and he's also averaging 11.6 points per contest and 4.2 assists per game as well.
Going against Kentucky's D.J. Wagner, who's averaging 14.2 points and 3.7 assists per contest, that's a great one-on-one battle. For UK, even without the two big men, Kentucky scored 118 points versus Marshall on Friday, Nov. 24. Leading the way was Wagner with 28 points.
Look for Joseph to score double digits tonight, but his most important task is slowing down Wagner and the explosive Kentucky fastbreak.
