In which the coach says Chris Jones didn’t start for the University of Louisville because of the flop in the game against Kentucky. No explanation of why Jones was pulled so quickly when he did get in or why he stayed on the bench so long afterwards.

Jones entered the game at the 17:27 mark, committed a turnover at 16:28 and was pulled at 16:05 during his first appearance, with some animated discussion between coach and player. He returned with 7:14 remaining in the second half and played the rest of the game.

The box score indicates Jones had three rebounds and an assist. No points.
