Two starters — Jalen Wilson and DeJuan Harris — return from the Kansas Jayhawks hoops team that bathed in a confetti shower on the court in New Orleans.
On today’s episode of The Star’s SportsBeat KC podcast, KU beat writer Gary Bedore previews the 2022-23 team that recently unfurled another NCAA championship banner at Allen Fieldhouse. Who will join Wilson, Harris and Texas Tech transfer Kevin McCullar in the Jayhawks’ starting lineup, and how deep will Bill Self go with his playing rotation?
After a break, you’ll hear from Self, who met with reporters last week. He spoke about the pressure this team faces while providing insights about the roster. KU opens the season Thursday with an exhibition game against Pittsburg State, coached by former KU guard Jeff Boschee, and plays regular-season games against Omaha and North Dakota State before meeting Duke in the Champions Classic on Nov. 15.
