Apparently a loss to Wisconsin was enough for Kentucky player Andrew Harrison to say something pretty harsh about Frank Kaminsky.

On Sunday, SB Nation mentioned that when a reporter asked Karl-Anthony Towns a question about Frank Kaminsky during Kentucky's press conference after its Final Four loss to Wisconsin, Harrison appeared to say something under his breath.
He most likely didn't think anyone would hear him, but the sensitive microphones caught it all.

"F*** that N****," Harrison said. But the Twittersphere wasn't about to let him get away with such obscenity.
Harrison later took to Twitter to apologize.
"First I want to apologize for my poor choice of works used in jest towards a player I respect and know," he said in his first Tweet.
"When I realized how this could be perceived I immediately called big frank to apologize and let him know I didn't mean any disrespect," the player continued.
"We had a good conversation and I wished him good luck in the championship game Monday," Harrison said in his final Tweet.
ESPN reported that Kaminsky has confirmed that Harrison did in fact apologize to him.
"He reached out to me, we talked about it, [I'm] over it," Kaminsky said. "Nothing needs to be made out of it."
Kaminsky reportedly had 20 points and 11 rebounds to help Wisconsin to a 71-64 victory against Kentucky.
Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan took this incident and turned it into a teachable moment.
"In this day and age, it always reminds all of us that whatever we say can and will be heard, it seems," Ryan said. "The teaching moment is the individual himself learned from it obviously by reaching out to Frank, so we'll leave it at that," Ryan said.
