The Kentucky Wildcats survived a pesky Vanderbilt team in Tampa Friday night, defeating the Commodores 77-71 to advance in the Southeastern Conference Tournament.

Oscar Tshiebwe continues to make history this season, this time tying Dan Issel for the most double-doubles in a single season at Kentucky.

The UK junior forward totaled 12 points and 14 rebounds in the win, his 26th double-double of the season.

Tshiebwe’s 26th double-double matches the record set by Dan Issel during the 1969-70 season.
