We have officially reached SEC play, which means it's an excellent time to take a look at the stat leaders in some of the major categories for this Kentucky basketball team. 

It will be interesting to look back at the numbers in a few weeks to see who is playing well in SEC play and who is improving their numbers. 

As a team, this Kentucky basketball team is putting up incredible numbers on the offensive side of the floor and is shooting 41.6% from three. 

KenPom loves the Cats offense, but the defense is going to need some work as the team gets ready for the gauntlet that is SEC basketball.
