Kentucky's Bam Adebayo: Stays hot as Wildcats advance

Adebayo had his second straight double-double in Sunday's win over Wichita State, as the freshman collected 13 points (6-11 FG, 1-4 FT), 10 rebounds and a block over 31 minutes.

Analysis:

Adebayo continues to be a difference-maker in the tournament, and he'll get another chance to make an impact when Kentucky faces the winner of Sunday's UCLA/Cincinnati matchup in the Sweet Sixteen. He's now collected a double-double in three of his last five games, and was one rebound short of one in back-to-back SEC tournament games. These standout performances certainly are not hurting his NBA draft stock.
