The Texas A&M Aggies pulled off a big upset over the Kentucky Wildcats on Saturday. The team needed the win because of their recent string of bad losses.
The game ended up going to overtime, thanks mostly to the play of guard Jalen Jones. Rapper Lil Wayne seemed pretty excited about his play as he gave the player a shoutout on Twitter.
Much luv Jalen Jones, Texas A&M!

Jones led all scorers with 24 points and also added on eight rebounds. He certainly had a big time performance in the game and he will need to keep playing just like that if the Aggies want to make the NCAA Tournament.
So far on the year, Jones averages 16 points and seven rebounds per game this year.
