LEXINGTON — The Kentucky basketball team, which plays under the La Familia banner, had dealt with its share of injuries just three games into this year's edition of The Basketball Tournament.
Willie Cauley-Stein was slowed by an ailment in Games 1 and 2 of the best-of-three series against The Ville, stocked by rivals from Louisville. Deandre Liggins didn't play in the deciding Game 3 on Wednesday, July 22, at Memorial Coliseum, and in that same game, Andrew Harrison was limping toward the end of the 63-57 victory.
Jon Hood, La Familia's first-year coach, brushed it off.
"Everybody's all right," he said following Wednesday's six-point win. "We get three days. We'll be fine. ... We survive (and) advance with who we have."

Had it been required, Hood said Liggins could have taken the floor "in an emergency situation."
Thanks to the efforts of Liggins' teammates, he wasn't required.
Unlike the opening round, the quarterfinals of the TBT don't give a team a second chance should it lose. It's now single elimination. And legion of former Wildcats are on the precipice of the semifinals.
If La Familia downs Boeheim's Army — it's a group of Syracuse alums — today in Lexington, the former Cats will reach the championship round of the "Alumni Bracket" of this year's TBT.

The La Familia/Boeheim's Army contest is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. today at Memorial Coliseum.
