Posts double-double in comeback win Wilson chipped in 21 points (6-16 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 37 minutes during Saturday's 87-71 win over Baylor.

Impact Wilson played a major role as the Jayhawks dug their way out of a 45-32 first-half deficit, logging 12 points and eight boards during the second period of play. As a result, the 6-foot-8 junior logged his ninth double-double of the season and his first since the Jan. 14 win against Iowa State. This was also Wilson's sixth game with double-digit free-throw attempts, and he's now averaged 5.5 trips to the charity stripe per game. He'll look to maintain his status as one of the country's most productive players during Monday's contest at TCU.

Battles foul trouble in big win Wilson ended with two points (1-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 27 minutes during Monday's 88-80 victory over Texas.

Impact Wilson played fewer than 30 minutes for just the second time this season due to foul trouble early on in Monday's win. As a result, the nation's leading scorer was held to the worst scoring and shooting performances of the season, failing to finish with double-digit points for the first time all season. This didn't ultimately cost the Jayhawks thanks to strong scoring performances from freshman Gradey Dick (21), point guard Dajuan Harris (17) and wing Kevin McCullar (16). Wilson now sits at 20.7 points per game across 24 outings, and he'll look to recover from this paltry showing when Kansas faces 12-12 Oklahoma on Saturday.
