Dejuan Harris had his best career game and his 3rd team-MVP of the season. He was also KU’s best offensive and defensive player Saturday, something which has occurred in only 7 of the team’s 29 games this season. Over his last 6 games, Dejuan has averaged a game score of +6.07, the best on the team in that span.
Kevin McCullar, Gradey Dick, and Jalen Wilson each had slightly positive games. McCullar made numerous impressive defensive plays in the second half, but also gave up a few baskets. He hit some nice shots to finish with a positive offensive outing. Dick would have had a better game, but he gave points away in the final few minutes. Jalen Wilson had a quiet game but still managed to do enough to generate positive value.
K.J. Adams was the only starter to record a negative-value game. The bench had its worst game in weeks. Hopefully this is just a blip that will be corrected in upcoming games.
The TEAM score of +1.79 was the team’s lowest since the road Iowa State loss, but it was still good enough to earn the team the win. Let’s hope the gray/white jerseys are done with. Traditional color schemes need to be preserved.
