Jamari McDowell - Steps up in spot start McDowell closed Monday's 82-78 victory over Arizona with 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals in 35 minutes.
Impact McDowell took advantage of the spot start, playing a season-high 35 minutes while scoring in double figures for the second time this season and setting new season-best marks in rebounds (six) and steals (four). The sophomore reserve earned the start when Darryn Peterson (flu-like symptoms) was ruled out shortly before the opening tip. McDowell had been averaging just 3.2 points and 1.6 rebounds with zero steals across 18.5 minutes of action in 10 games against conference foes prior to Monday.

Impact Tiller stepped up his offensive production against Arizona's elite frontcourt, scoring 18 to mark the third time he's reached double figures in conference play as the Jayhawks upset the top-ranked Wildcats. Tiller connected on two triples while also adding eight board, two assists, two blocks and a steal in putting together one of his best all-around performances of the season. The freshman forward had averaged just 5.7 points across 21.7 minutes through his first six conference games but has seen his minutes total and production rise over the last five, averaging 13.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.2 blocks and 0.8 steals while shooting 54.5-percent from the field and 41.7-percent from distance across 33.2 minutes during this most recent stretch.
