Hunter Dickinson - Massive 30-point double-double Dickinson contributed 33 points (15-23 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 83-76 win over Arizona.
Impact Dickinson recorded his second 30-point double-double in four games as he and the Jayhawks put together one of their most complete performances since the start of conference play. It was the fifth double-double in six games for Dickinson, who appears to have awakened from his mid-season slumber just in time for the start of the postseason. He'll enter next week's conference tournament on a roll, having averaged 21.3 points and 11.5 rebounds while playing nearly 30 minutes per game across his last six contests.

Zeke Mayo - Much-needed rebound performance Mayo closed with 20 points (5-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 83-76 win over Arizona.
Impact Mayo poured in 5-of-7 from beyond the arc, recording 20 points for the first time since late January as the Jayhawks closed the regular season by putting together one of their best efforts of the conference season. The hometown Mayo added six assists against zero turnovers during the clean offensive effort. The senior guard has had a strong season overall for Kansas but had been struggling mightily over the past three games, scoring just 16 points total while turning the ball over 14 times during that stretch prior to Saturday's rebound performance. Mayo and the Jayhawks will hope that this showing will serve as a springboard into next week's Big 12 conference tournament.

Jaden Bradley - Paces Wildcats in defeat Bradley logged 21 points (7-11 FG, 7-7 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Saturday's 83-76 loss to Kansas.
Impact Bradley led the Wildcats while besting the 20-point mark for the second time this season, though it wasn't enough to prevent the Wildcats from losing for the fourth time in their last seven games. Despite the loss, Bradley is playing his best basketball of the season during the home stretch, averaging 15.8 points, 3.5 assists, 3.3 boards and 1.3 steals across the final four contests. Arizona has secured a double bye during next week's Big 12 tournament and no matter the result, will enter the upcoming NCAA tournament as a dark horse Final Four contender.
