Bronson Koenig takes shot at Harrison twins for skipping handshakes after loss

Kentucky finally went down as they lost 71-64 to Wisconsin Saturday in the Final Four for their first loss of the season.

The Wildcats obviously were not used to losing, so they didn’t know how to react in defeat. A few of their star players even walked off the court and went towards the locker room without shaking hands. The Harrison twins were among those who skipped handshakes, as did Willie Cauley-Stein.

After the game, Wisconsin’s Bronson Koenig, who scored 12 points in the victory, took a jab at the Harrisons for skipping the sportsmanship ritual.

“I didn’t see the Harrisons. I’m not sure where they went,” Koenig said via Yahoo’s Kevin Kaduc.

We always say that if you’re going to celebrate a victory, you have to be prepared to be sportsmanlike in defeat. These players did not do so, and it’s a poor reflection. Unfortunately, this happens far too frequently at the professional level too.
