SEC Freshman of the Week – Kentucky guard D.J. Wagner, a 6-foot-4, 192-pound freshman from Camden, N.J., played a game-high 35 minutes and generated 14 points, a season-high six rebounds, a game-high five assists and had a steal in UK’s upset of No. 9 North Carolina. Wagner led the way for the Cats who earned their second win of a top-10 Associated Press ranked team this season. He was the steady floor general and lead on-ball defender, while contributing on the boards. Wagner was steady from the floor, hitting clutch shots and making 50 percent of his 3-pointers.
