    Hagans scores 21, leads No. 8 Kentucky past Georgia Tech



    Ashton Hagans has elevated his game, and Kentucky coach John Calipari has noticed the transformation in his point guard.

    "He knows what to expect and he has no anxiety about what he is doing and knows coming into the game," Calipari said.

The way he is playing, he's starting to master his skills."
