Darryn Peterson's Clutch 3-Pointers Lift Kansas Over Texas Tech

Comes up huge in clutch Peterson chipped in 19 points (5-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals across 35 minutes during Monday's 64-61 win over Texas Tech.

Impact After missing most of the second half on Saturday against BYU with leg cramps, Peterson managed to play a season-high 35 minutes Monday night and led the Jayhawks with 19 points as they secured the huge road conference victory. The freshman blue-chipper had his least-efficient shooting performance of the season but flipped the script late and demonstrated why he's considered to be a top pick in next season's NBA draft, beating a double team by draining a late three to tie the game, then connecting on a 26-footer with 44-seconds remaining to provide the winning margin and complete the comeback for the Jayhawks. After missing nine games during the non-conference slate, Peterson has played in eight of nine conference games, during which he's averaging 22.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.5 blocks while shooting 47.9-percent from the floor and 43.6-percent from downtown.

Available Monday Peterson (undisclosed) is available for Monday's matchup against Texas Tech, per the team's official team injury report.

Impact Peterson is not listed on the team injury report and will be available against the Red Raiders on Monday. The 6-foot-6 guard has been dealing with injury throughout the season and sat out a large portion of the second half against BYU on Saturday, but he seems to be well enough to play against TTU. He has averaged 21.3 points and 4.5 rebounds per game through 11 contests this season.

Impact Peterson logged more points, assists and steals than fellow top-prospect A.J. Dybantsa recorded en route to a win over the latter's BYU team. Peterson's feat is incredibly impressive, especially given that he sat out most of the second half due to camps. Once again, Peterson's health will come into question as the Jayhawks prepare to begin their February schedule. Theirs kicks off Monday at Texas Tech.

Available vs. BYU Peterson (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against BYU.

Impact Peterson was widely expected to be available for this contest, so this update shouldn't come as a surprise for fantasy managers who are looking to roster Peterson against the Cougars. The star freshman has been excellent when available for Kansas, averaging 21.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game in 10 starts so far.

Expected to be available Saturday Peterson (ankle) is expected to be available for Saturday's game against BYU, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Rothstein's update brings welcome news out of Kansas, as it looks like the KU superstar will not sit out multiple games due to his ankle injury, in contrast to previous lower-body problems that cost him nearly a month's worth of matchups. Not only is Kansas competing against a Peterson-level prospect in A.J. Dybantsa, but the Jayhawks face another rising team in the Big 12 Conference with BYU. But in Peterson's last eight games, not only did Kansas go a solid 6-2, he also impressed with 21.6 points and 2.9 three-pointers made per game on 47.2/40.4/82.9 shooting splits. At worst, Peterson is expected to be probable when Kansas' availability report is updated Friday.
