Kentucky contains Ben Simmons but falls at LSU

Kentucky guard Tyler Ulis said he and his teammates were well aware that containing star forward Ben Simmons might not be enough to slow down high-scoring LSU.

Tim Quarterman had 21 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists, Craig Victor added 15 points and 12 rebounds, and LSU defeated Kentucky 85-67 on Tuesday night.

Ulis had 23 points and Jamal Murray added 21 for Kentucky, (11-3, 1-1 Southeastern Conference), which lost for the third time in seven games.
