Some crazy stats on his performance:

- Monk tied Dan Issel for the sixth-most points ever by a Wildcat in a single game

- Monk crushed the previous school record of 35 points by a freshman
- It was the most points any John Calipari player has scored at Kentucky

- Monk's 47 points were the most a Wildcat has scored in a game since Jodie Meeks recorded the single-game record of 54 points at Tennessee on Jan. 18, 2009

- Monk's 47 points tied for the second most against UNC in history and is the most since Rich Yuknus (Georgia Tech) scored 47 on Feb. 14, 1970 (Dick Groat scored 48 at Duke on Feb. 29, 1952)

- Monk made 18 field goals. The last Wildcat to make 18 shots in a game was Melvin Turpin on March 8, 1984

- No Calipari player has ever averaged more than 21.2 points for an entire year (Dajuan Wagner at Memphis in 2001-02). Monk is currently at 21.9
