Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had two critical turnovers in the final minute of Kentucky's 61-59 home loss to Tennessee back on Feb. 6.

It's safe to say he redeemed himself Sunday.

Gilgeous-Alexander set an SEC Tournament freshman record by scoring 29 points to go with seven rebounds, three assists and two steals in the Wildcats' 77-72 win over Tennessee in St. Louis Sunday to claim its fourth straight SEC Tournament crown and 31st in school history.

The freshman point guard made 10 of 16 shots overall, 2 of 3 three-pointers and all seven of his free throws in being named SEC Tournament MVP. Over three games, he averaged 21 points, 5.o rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.7 steals for the Wildcats.

Kentucky's Kevin Knox and Wenyen Gabriel were also named to the All-Tournament team.

Knox, who finished with 18 points and seven boards Sunday, averaged 14.7 points and 6.0 rebounds. Gabriel, who set a Kentucky SEC Tournament record with seven made 3s vs. Alabama, posted 12 points and six rebounds against the Volunteers.
