Gradey Dick - Decent outing in winDick notched 13 points (4-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Saturday's 77-68 victory over Kentucky.
ImpactDick was not able to replicate his 8-of-13 shooting performance from Monday's loss to Baylor, as he hit fewer than five field goals for the third time in the last four games. The freshman sharpshooter has converted 38 percent of his 12.5 field-goal tries and just 23.1 percent of his 6.5 three-point attempts per game during this span. However, he's still averaged 15.3 points and 5.0 boards over that stretch. Dick has also shot 42.7 percent from beyond the arc and 44.9 percent from the field overall this season, providing confidence that he'll eventually manage to break this shooting slump.

Dajuan Harris - Eight points, assistsHarris supplied eight points (3-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), one rebound and eight assists over 37 minutes during Saturday's 77-68 win over Kentucky.
ImpactHarris recovered after scoring five total points over the previous four games. He also continued to serve a prominent role as the Jayhawks' floor general, as he's now averaged 6.5 assists over 21 starts. Harris has also logged 1.9 steals per game, so his value on both ends of the court should continue to make him a solid fantasy contributor.

Kevin McCullar - Double-double in winMcCullar had 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes during Saturday's 77-68 win over Kentucky.
ImpactMcCullar posted a team-high 12 rebounds for the second game in a row, resulting in consecutive double-doubles against Baylor and Kentucky. The Texas Tech transfer's production had taken a dip over Kansas' first seven conference matchups this season, though his recent effort on the boards and as a scorer down low has apparently re-ignited his fantasy value. McCullar has only hit seven of his 19 field-goal attempts over the past two games, but his added value on the boards gives him a solid fantasy value.

Jalen Wilson - Continues hot streakWilson finished Saturday's 77-68 victory over Kentucky with 22 points (9-18 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals across 39 minutes.
ImpactWilson shot 50 percent or better from the field for the fourth game in a row during the Big 12-SEC challenge. As a result, the Jayhawks' leading scorer has been on an absolute tear during this stretch, putting up 38, 30, 23 and 22 points. Wilson also finished with Kansas' second-most rebounds behind fellow starter Kevin McCullar (12), as these two battled with one of the nation's best rebounders in Wildcats big man Oscar Tshiebwe (nine). Wilson is averaging 21.4 points, 8.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game this season, making him one of the top fantasy players at any level of college basketball.
