Jaxson Robinson Ruled Out for Kentucky vs. No. 1 Auburn

Kentucky basketball will be without guard Jaxson Robinson for their upcoming game against No. 1 Auburn after he re-aggravated a wrist injury during the previous game against Oklahoma. Robinson played only 12 minutes before sitting out the second half and has now officially been ruled out according to the SEC's pregame Availability Report. Head coach Mark Pope noted that while Robinson's situation is unfortunate, other key players like Lamont Butler and Amari Williams are healthy and expected to play. Kentucky aims to replicate their past successes against high-ranked teams despite the setback, facing an Auburn squad currently boasting a strong record of 26-2. The game will take place at Rupp Arena, where the Wildcats will need a significant home-court advantage to overcome the challenge posed by the top-ranked Tigers. A final injury report will be released shortly before tipoff.
