Pitino On Mills:

"If we do redshirt Jeff Sheppard, Cameron Mills will have to play some basketball. I've got a lot of confidence in his jump shot. It's just that he has to improve defensively and improve in the toughness department. But he has definitely made strides -- strides that give me the confidence to play him."
