Darryn Peterson - Out vs. Connecticut Peterson (hamstring) is out for Tuesday's game against Connecticut.
Impact An update of Peterson's injury status was expected Tuesday morning, and the announcement came with a negative result on his health, as he will log another DNP to heal from a hamstring strain. Kansas' head coach Bill Self commented on the matter, disclosing Peterson's effort, lack of full health and future status. "He [Peterson] is very close. He has worked his butt off, but he is still not 100 percent. He is day-to-day," Self said. Once again, the Jayhawks will have to add a makeshift starter, with their latest example being Jamari McDowell. Peterson's next opportunity to play will come Sunday with the Border War between Kansas and Missouri.

Jayden Dawson - Will be available Tuesday Dawson (wrist) will be available for Tuesday's game against UConn, head coach Bill Self told Rivals.com. "He's practiced, so he practiced today. So I would say available. Yes."
Impact Dawson's return will add depth on the wings for Kansas. However, he's not expected to make a big impact across the board. He's averaging a mere 16.2 minutes per game in six outings off the bench in 2025-26, averaging 4.3 points, 1.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game.

Jayden Dawson - Expected to be available Dawson (wrist) is expected to be available for Tuesday's game against Connecticut, according to Matt Tait of R1S1.
Impact Kansas' head coach Bill Self is confident that Dawson will be available for the Connecticut-Kansas game.

Darryn Peterson - Able to practice, status TBD Kansas' head coach Bill Self announced that Peterson (hamstring) is able to practice and that his availability status will be updated Tuesday, The Field of 68 reports.
Impact "He [Peterson] has practiced," Self announced. "He's gone up and down. Before we'll announce anything, he has to test out medically. We'll be able to say something definitively in the morning [Tuesday]. Peterson and Kansas' team are preparing for a Connecticut team ranked top five in the AP Poll, with the Jayhawks have dropped out of after going 1-3 in their last four games without him. According to Sam Lance of On3.com, a healthy Peterson would start against UConn. But if Peterson is not healthy, the Jayhawks' projected starting lineup is expected to include Jamari McDowell alongside a taller frontcourt with Tre White, Bryson Tiller and Flory Bidunga.

Jayden Dawson - Day-to-day with wrist injury Dawson (wrist) is considered day-to-day moving forward, per Gary Bedore of The Kansas City Star.
Impact Dawson has missed each of the team's last two games due to a wrist injury suffered in pregame warmups before the first contest in the Players Era tournament. The 6-foot-5 wing's injury isn't believed to be too serious and he is looked at as day-to-day moving forward, giving him a chance to suit up against UConn on Tuesday.

Darryn Peterson - Set to undergo testing Friday Peterson (hamstring) will undergo testing on Friday to determine the severity of his hamstring injury, per Gary Bedore of The Kansas City Star.
Impact Peterson has missed six consecutive contests for the Jayhawks due to a hamstring issue and it seems as if a longer absence is a distinct possibility. The 6-foot-6 freshman had a monster first two games for Kansas this season, averaging 21.5 points and 3.5 rebounds per game in that stretch before going down. Peterson's status will certainly be worth monitoring as more news develops, but he can likely be looked at as doubtful for Tuesday's matchup against UConn for the timebeing.
