Mills no longer member of the basketball team
February 21, 2008
UK freshman walk-on Dusty Mills is no longer with the basketball team, head coach Billy Gillispie said after the Cats’ win over Georgia on Tuesday.
Mills, a Noblesville, Ind., native, told a Lexington Herald-Leader reporter that he was kicked off the team following an incident during UK’s game at Georgia on Feb. 2, and that he did not have a chance to plead his case to Gillispie.
“They all have a chance,†Gillispie said after Tuesday’s game. “Dusty was a great member of our team, but he’s no longer on the team.â€
Mills appeared in four games this season, averaging 1.3 minutes. He has not played since UK’s win over Florida International on Dec. 31.
