WATCH: Kentucky MBB players play Family Feud for charity

Jack PIlgrimby:Jack Pilgrim08/27/22

Half of the Kentucky men’s basketball team won $10,000 playing Family Feud late Saturday evening, then proceeded to give it all away to flood relief efforts in Eastern Kentucky.

As part of the Players First Fantasy Experience this weekend in Lexington, the Wildcats participated in a camp edition of the popular game show, with the team split in two on the big stage. Two rounds, one fast money segment, $10K on the line.

After a hot start with the team featuring Jacob Toppin, Cason Wallace, Adou Thiero, Antonio Reeves, Kareem Watkins and Grant Darbyshire, momentum shifted the other direction in round two. Sahvir Wheeler, Lance Ware, CJ Fredrick, Chris Livingston, Daimion Collins, Brennan Canada and Walker Horn would pull through late for the comeback win.

The topics?

  • Name something that is turned on most of the day
  • Name something that may be a foot long

And then the fast money round, which included discussion on what you might find at the beach, body parts described as wide and food that gets stuck in your teeth.

Most importantly, every dime will be used to help flood victims in Eastern Kentucky — as requested by the players themselves.

I like my team.
