Brandon Knight learning when not to shoot

As John Calipari recalled it, Brandon Knight stepped off the team bus after the return from Wednesday's victory over Notre Dame and gave the Kentucky coach a high- five.

"Like 'I'm just happy,' " Calipari said of the message he inferred. " 'I'm trying to get it. I want to get it.' "

Of course, what Knight is trying to get is how Calipari wants him to play point guard. Knight's performance against Notre Dame told the coach his freshman point guard is getting it.

"I loved his pace to the game," Calipari said Friday. "He understood when to pull it out."

Knight, who averaged more than 30 points as a high school senior, is adjusting from being the primary scorer to a floor leader.
