We take a look at three key takeaways from Louisville basketball’s win over Kentucky Wesleyan on Thursday night in the Yum Center.

I’m pretty sure that everyone around the country is ready for some Louisville basketball right? Well, maybe not everyone, but true Cardinals’ fans are ready to see some hoops being played in the Yum Center.

The Cardinals kicked their season off against Kentucky Wesleyan on Thursday night, which won’t actually count towards their 2016-2017 record because this was an exhibition game.

As expected, Louisville played great and came out with the win.

Don’t forget, these type of games don’t mean much in terms of the rest of the season. Even if a guy plays bad, it doesn’t mean that things will be like that all season long. There are many young guys on this roster, therefore be sure to cut them some slack early on.

However, that doesn’t mean that we can’t take a look at some good and bad things that happened in the game on Thursday night.

Here are three takeaways from Louisville’s win over Kentucky Wesleyan.
