Watch: Calipari turns tables on child reporter in awesome exchange

Mark Zerof-USA TODAY Sports

John Calipari has long been one of the most polished coaches in the country in dealing with the press, and the Kentucky frontman showed on Tuesday that not even a child can knock him off his stride.

Following freshman Malik Monk's standout performance in the blowout win over Michigan State, a Sports Illustrated for Kids reporter asked him where Monk stacks up against other prized first-year players Calipari has coached.

The legendary coach immediately turned the tables on the reporter, asking him for his opinion in a very humorous exchange.
