Good shot volume in return Mintz (illness) closed with nine points (2-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 76-64 win over Southern University. Impact Mintz returned from a three-game absence, and while it was his lowest minutes total of the season, he still saw the most minutes among backcourt reserves and attempted the third-most shots among all Wildcats players on the evening. Kentucky as a team is shooting just 32.7 percent from beyond the arc, and that's an area Mintz can help with, as he's made 34.7 percent of his three-pointers (or greater) in each of his previous four collegiate seasons. He's on pace to shoot 38.9 percent this year after converting 37.8 percent with Kentucky a season ago.
