Takeaways Tennessee: The Volunteers had a three-game winning streak snapped and fell to 4-4 in road games. Tennessee scored just 26 points in the first half, while leading scorer Lanier (17.7 points per game), was held to just 10 points.

Kentucky: The Wildcats were without guard Jaxson Robinson, the team’s second-leading scorer (13.3 points per game), who sat out because of a right wrist injury. Robinson scored 17 points in the win over the Volunteers on Jan. 28. Kentucky has played just seven games with a full roster this season. Lamont Butler left with 8:40 after apparently re-aggravating his shoulder.

Key moment After Tennessee took its second lead with 4:43 left, the Wildcats outscored the Vols 17-4 in the final four minutes. Koby Brea connected on two 3-pointers during the decisive spurt.

Up next Kentucky plays at Texas on Saturday, and Tennessee hosts Vanderbilt.
