Jayhawks' Jalen Wilson suspended 4 games after DUI arrest

Suspended for three games Wilson has been suspended for the first three regular season games as well as Wednesday's exhibition game, Jesse Newell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Wilson will also be required to complete community service in conjunction with his suspension stemming from a DUI over the weekend. That should provide chances for guys like Joseph Yesufu, Jalen Coleman-Lands, and Mitch Lightfoot to get some extra minutes off the bench and potentially start the first part of the season for the Jayhawks.

Discipline unclear following arrest Wilson was arrested Sunday morning on suspicion of DUI, Jesse Newell of the Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Upon learning of the incident, coach Bill Self released a statement that included the following, "We are looking into the situation as we speak and will determine potential consequences with him once we have the rest of the details." Kansas is fortunate to have a deep enough team this season that it can survive a suspension of one of their wing players, though it's not immediately clear if that's the course of action the university intends to take. Wilson started 26 of 29 games for the Jayhawks a season ago, posting 11.8 points and 7.9 rebounds. He stayed back a season despite having legitimate pro potential, and the hope is that this incident is just a blip on the radar by mid-season.

Impact After a late-January rut in which Wilson was temporarily removed from the starting lineup, the freshman has again caught fire and elevated to arguably the best player on this year's Kansas team. He now has a double-double in six of his last seven contests, chipping in at least one assist in each of those games as well.
