Get a summary of the Clemson Tigers vs. Kansas Jayhawks basketball game
Bill Self says Udoka Azubuike will start Friday against Clemson and appears “fine.” The coach says his center practiced at full speed on Tuesday after playing a limited role off the bench in Kansas’ first two NCAA tournament wins. Azubuike did not play in the Big 12 tournament, March 8 to 11, because of a knee injury.
High praise from Bill Self for Devonte’ Graham. The Kansas coach says his senior possesses more “intangibles” and leadership qualities than any player Self has coached. “It’s every coach’s dream to have someone who’s an extension of you.”
Kansas guard Devonte’ Graham on Kansas State’s appearance in the Sweet 16. The Jayhawks’ Sunflower State rival faces Kentucky tonight in Atlanta: “I’m definitely going to watch the game. Probably root for them… It’s kind of like a [Big 12] brotherhood at the end of the day.”
