PJ Washington scored a career-high 29 points and grabbed 13 rebounds, but ninth-ranked Kentucky came up short, losing to Seton Hall 84-83 in overtime on Saturday at Madison Square Garden. The Wildcats appeared to have lost the game at the end of regulation when Seton Hall’s Myles Powell hit a three-pointer with 1.5 seconds left in the game to give the Pirates a 70-67 lead. But Washington inbounded to Keldon Johnson, who drilled a mid court three to tie the game 70-70, forcing the overtime.
Reid Travis added 13 points and six rebounds for the Cats, while Johnson and Tyler Herro each had 10. Kentucky returns to action next Saturday, hosting Utah at Rupp Arena. Pregame coverage begins at 2:30 on Lite Rock 98.7 and lite987whop.com
