Sidelines with John Clay

Live updates: Kentucky vs. Duke college basketball

Not a bad way to kick off the college basketball season. Hoping to rebound from last year’s 9-16 record, John Calipari’s Kentucky Wildcats take on Mike Krzyzewski’s Duke Blue Devils in the Champions Classic at Madison Square Garden in New York. Tipoff is scheduled for 9:30 p.m., or after the Michigan State-Kansas game. ESPN has the telecast.
